Warne spoke to the Star after the clubs highest earner left the club with 2 years left to run on his contact.

“I’m glad the situation is finally resolved, Me and Dexter had a conversation. We both came out of that knowing the only outcome was that he wouldn’t be playing a part next season." Warne said.

“It was common sense to part company. I wish him all the best. I have no ill feelings towards him. He just isn’t my type of player. And I think, if he was a manager, I wouldn’t be his type of player either.”

“Loads of players come and go from football clubs all the time. It’s no different here, Since I have taken over, there have been a load of players who have slid out of the door and there hasn’t been a big trumpet about it."

“Obviously, it’s different for Dexter. He’s a big name and it just didn’t work out for him. It would have been the same for any player. If Woody, say, wasn’t part of my plans, you don’t want him around."

“It sounds awful - he’s a great lad - but you don’t want to be spending any of your time or energy on players who aren’t going to play a part. Warne added.
