“While we have retained most of our starting 11 from last season and added a couple of good players we have been hit by a number of our squad players deciding to call it a day and unfortunately no one can run a team without a squad,” the statement added.
The statement also described the situation as “sad” and thanked everyone connected with the club over the past nine years.
