Such is the state of Cheltenham's finances, Martin Allen has told the press he is open to offers on all of his current squad.
"Any approaches will be considered because we have to cut the wage bill. Letting Alex (Russell) go was not my decision, but if clubs come in for players, the finances are the most important thing at the moment because bills have to be paid. It's out of my hands and I have to respect the financial position the club is in."
Russell departed for Exeter, and will make the move permanent in the summer, while Allen has also seen Alan Fettis depart yesterday due to further cuts at Whaddon Road: "Alan has done a sterling job with (goalkeeper) Scott Brown and he has adapted very well to his scouting position. The scouting network has had to be disbanded and Alan has left in another cost-cutting measure because we have had to cut our cloth immediately. The current economic climate, which we read about every day, is affecting us."
The Robins are on a run of six straight losses, and have not won since back-to-back wins at the start of December. Gates have slumped recently, with Tuesday's home gate a thousand under their average this season.
