Crystal Palace co-owner Steve Parish doesn't feel let down by Tony Pulis' departure.
Pulis stunned Palace by asking to leave his role as manager just two days before the season started, with Parish agreeing to his request.
"I can't explain it, I'd love to be able to tell you everything that went wrong," he told Match of the Day.
"There was a good transfer budget agreed, there was a lack of targets that I think the manager felt was good enough in the window and it came to a point where he felt he didn't want to carry on.
"I can't have people at the football club who aren't 100 per cent committed to what we're trying to do, so reluctantly I agreed to let him out of his contract.
"I can't be let down for what he achieved for us. He doesn't owe us but we don't owe him. He did a fantastic job for us but we are what we are. I got this club from administration to where we are now by taking decisions to create a positive environment.
"If people don't feel they can work in that environment then it's fine for them to move on."
