Chesterfield Boss Allen Clears The Decks

The manager has released a statement saying a number of players have been made available for transfer.

Hines is the big surprise - with National League champion Shwan Jalal also told he can leave the Proact.

Summer signing Michael Nelson’s future also appears to lie away from Chesterfield.

The manager told the club’s website: “This morning I spoke to a number of players regarding their future at our club.

“Clearly, changes need to be made as we have not won enough points and to be honest, I'm fed up of hearing we played well and that it was a good performance, only to draw.

“Kyel Reid, Marc-Antoine Fortune and Zavon Hines all live down in London and it's best for them and for us to find clubs in the London area. I am not going into further details as to why I've had to make this decision.

“Shwan Jalal has been made available for loan. Now he's fit and well, he needs to be out playing first-team football.

“Joe Anyon is already available on a free transfer or loan. Michael Nelson has also been made available on a free transfer or loan.

“Now Robbie Weir is fit following his injury, he's also available on a free transfer or loan.

“We need to strengthen this team and we will.”
