Mick McCarthy sensationally resigned as Ipswich boss on this day in 2018, telling the media "I'm out of here" in his post-match press conference.
The Tractor Boys had secured a 1-0 victory over Barnsley in their Sky Bet Championship meeting thanks to Jonas Knudsen's second-half goal.
However, the result wasn't enough to keep McCarthy in the dugout, with his five-and-a-half year association with the club due to come to an end at the conclusion of 2017/18 campaign.
His stint at Ipswich finished four games earlier than expected though and his final press conference lasted less than three minutes before he made the announcement.
McCarthy stated that he was leaving during an answer on the fans' negative reaction to debutant Barry Cotter being substituted.
"That was a disgraceful reaction but listen I won't have to listen to it again because that's my last game," he told the media.
McCarthy then tapped the desk and said: "I'm out of here."
He would later clarify that the decision for him to leave had been made the weekend prior and the result, or reaction, wouldn't have changed his mind.
"I said I would see the season out but it's been a new experience and it's not one I have been enjoying to be honest," he stated.
"I have continued to do my job to the best of my ability but there is something missing and I'm not comfortable with that.
"I have had a great time here and worked with some great people and to all those who have given me wonderful support over the last five and a half years - and there are many - I want to put on record my personal thanks."
McCarthy went on to manage the Republic of Ireland, guiding them to the Euro 2020 play-offs before UEFA announced they were postponed.
His Ipswich resignation wasn't the first time that McCarthy has been involved in a memorable press conference moment.
During his time as Ireland boss, he couldn't resist having a dig at his former employers after they suffered relegation following his exit.

No matter what though, you can always expect a lot of honesty in his answers (warning, a bit of strong language in this one.)

Of course, if the football management business doesn't work out, McCarthy can always consider becoming a mechanic.
Journalist: "Can you explain what happened with the team bus before the game?"
