“The situation has been muddied by the amount of bizarre press and social media speculation linking the club with a variety of managers and potentially unsettling the players.
“The past two games have demonstrated to us that the players have the desire to play for Ronnie and the fans and get out of the lowly league position.

“We will continue to monitor the situation closely and work with him to make sure that we deliver on the pitch.”
