Pogue’s announcement sparked numerous replies from fans and players praising his service to the club.
Boss Elphick said: “It was all very amicable. Kenny’s been fantastic for the club but we felt it was the right time for him to move on.
"Dave Martin has moved on too – he’s signed for Phoenix Sports – but we are making good progress in tying down players for next season. I hope all those I want to keep will stay.”
