The former Chelsea and Brighton boss insisted that he was not happy with his exit, but did admit that the results had not been “good enough”.
He said: “I am incredibly disappointed to be leaving West Ham United Football Club, particularly without being able to achieve what we set out to achieve at the start of our journey in East London.
“I do however fully acknowledge that the results have just not been good enough up to now.
“Firstly, thank you to the board for offering me the opportunity to manage the team during the past eight months.
“It was an honour and a privilege to manage such a historic club, which holds such strong values for footballing traditions and passion for the game.
“I’d like to thank all the staff at the club who made me feel so welcome, the playing squad and their continued efforts during my time.
“Lastly the fans, who have been so supportive during what has been a difficult journey at times.
“I wish the club nothing but the best of luck for the future.
“Thank you and goodbye for now. Come on you Irons.”
