Hide AdStocker, who was joint manager with Mark Burgess, said: "There just wasn't enough commitment from players. We had seven or eight that were there every week and wanted to play.
"The rest would let me down last minute so we were never full strength which was a pain as there was so much talent in our squad."
Stocker will now go back to watching Chelsea every week.
He said: "I have a season ticket there and I've missed going if I'm honest.
"I enjoyed managing an I've learnt a lot from it it just wasn't meant to be I tried my best but it wasn't good enough."
Burgess is undecided on his future.
