Loanees Fin Back, Ben Barclay, John-Kymani-Gordon, Alfie McCalmont and Jack Robinson have returned to their parent clubs.
Manager Paul Simpson said:
"I'm not going to talk about anyone individually (who is leaving), but what I would say - I thank them all for what they've done for the football club.
"I know some will be disappointed but what I have to do is make decisions. We've had meetings after meetings over the last few weeks as a group of staff to discuss what we felt was the right group to take forward.
"Unfortunately, decisions are made that people don't agree with.
"Over this season, I've had team selections that people don't agree with. My job is to pick what I think is the right team and (on) this particular occasion, my job is to pick the players who I think are the right ones to take us forward."
