The club said its officers made "the difficult decision" after "careful consideration and a thorough review of the available options". It described the decision as "deeply disappointing", adding that its priority remains "the club's long-term sustainability and the continued provision of football for our members".
Cribbs thanked everyone who has represented the club during what they called a challenging period, singling out team management, players and volunteers for their commitment in difficult circumstances. The club also thanked the Hellenic League, Gloucestershire Football Association and the Football Association for their guidance, assistance and understanding over the past nine months.
The club will continue in the immediate future through its Reserve, Veteran and Under-18s teams. Cribbs said it will provide further updates as it works with the football authorities to determine the club's future pathway.
