"I would like to start this message by saying a huge thank you to everyone at Newport County for giving me my first opportunity as a Head Coach and be part of such a special football club.
“Right from day one, you, the Amber Army, were right there backing me, my staff and the players every step of the way. Your support never wavered, even during the most difficult moments and it’s this passion and belief that played such a huge part in us securing our place in the EFL.
“It has been a privilege to work with this group of players and staff. They gave everything every single day, and it was an honour to go on this journey with them. I am incredibly proud of what we achieved together. To go from where we started to securing safety, with 12 wins along the way, is something I'll always look back on with pride. It was a team effort in every sense.
“I had hoped this journey would continue, and it is with great sadness that I left Newport, but football doesn't always allow for things to work out the way you would like. Sometimes different paths emerge, and I respect that. I leave knowing we achieved our main objective and with complete belief that the club has a strong foundation to build on.
“I wish everyone connected with Newport County nothing but success in the seasons ahead. This club, its people, and its supporters will always hold a special place in my heart, and I will look back on my time here with great pride and affection.
“As for me, I am excited for whatever comes next. I will take the experiences, memories, and lessons from Newport with me, and I look forward to getting back on the training pitch and into the dugout when the right opportunity comes along.
“Clubs carry on. Managers come and go. It was a privilege to have been entrusted with this chapter of Newport County's story, and I leave with nothing but gratitude.”
