"Dean has been a fantastic servant to Eastbourne Borough Football Club," said Bloor. "After lengthy discussions, we mutually agreed a parting of ways and I certainly wish him and his family all the best for the future.
"He will be a big loss both on and off the pitch, and everyone at the club will certainly make sure he has a warm welcome should he come back to Priory Lane at anytime."
