Edgar Davids: Ex-Juventus man resigns as Barnet head coach
Conference Premier side Barnet have announced head coach Edgar Davids has "resigned by mutual agreement".
The former Netherlands midfielder, 40, joined the Bees in October 2012.
Davids initially moved to north London as joint-head coach alongside Mark Robson but took sole charge in December 2012 after Robson's departure.
"Everybody associated with the club would like to thank Edgar for his contribution during his time here," a club statement said.
"The club would also like to wish Edgar the very best of luck in what we have no doubt will be the continuation of an illustrious career."
The life and times of Edgar Davids

2004: Barcelona (loan)
2004-05: Inter Milan
2005-07: Tottenham
2007-08: Ajax

The Dutchman, who has represented clubs including Ajax, Juventus, Barcelona and Inter Milan in his career, came out of retirement and made 29 appearances as Barnet were relegated from League Two last season.
Davids made nine appearances for the Bees in the Conference Premier this season but was sent off on three occasions.
He threatened to retire in December following his third dismissal, saying he was a "target" and that some decisions were "exaggerated".
Davids, who has also had spells in England with Tottenham and Crystal Palace, leaves The Hive with Barnet 10th in the table, three points off the play-off places.
In total he made 38 appearances for Barnet, scoring one goal and receiving five red cards.
Davids won 74 caps for the Netherlands and helped Ajax win the Champions League, Uefa Cup and three Eredivisie titles.
In Italy, he picked up three Serie A championships with Juventus and the Coppa Italia with Inter Milan.

Arsenal have confirmed the appointment of Dutchman Andries Jonker as head of their academy, as Sportsmail first revealed.
The 51-year-old, currently the assistant manager at Wolfsburg in Germany's Bundesliga, will join Arsenal on July 1 and will succeed Liam Brady in the role.
Brady, currently the Gunners' head of youth development and the academy, will 'help to ensure a smooth transition' with Jonker, who spent seven years developing and implementing youth coaching reforms with the Dutch Football Association, the KNVB.

'He has a big reputation in the game and was a key part of the team which developed the structures which are now producing such strong young players in Holland.
'I look forward to working with him. I would also like to thank Liam for his work which has been outstanding over many years.'
Jonker has also worked as Holland under-21 and under-15 coach, technical manager of the KNVB and assistant coach to Louis van Gaal at Barcelona and Bayern Munich, where he also had a spell as interim head coach.
Arsenal have long been renowned for nurturing young talent and the club hope Jonker will build on Brady's work.
Arsenal chief executive Ivan Gazidis added: 'Youth development is a key part of our philosophy at Arsenal and I am delighted that Andries is joining us.
'He has an outstanding track record in developing and identifying young players and creating systems to bring the best out of them.
'I know he will build on the tremendous work which has been done by Liam and his team over many years.'

After looking at how they do their commercial's it's not thaaat bad.
I've seen some broadcastors can it perfectly, they just make the display slightly smaller for like 10 seconds, and run the ad in a bottom and right frame.
