Ramshaw ready to wield the axe

Eastwood Town boss John Ramshaw has confirmed he will show a number of his players the exit door at Coronation Park following Saturday's defeat to Histon.

The already relegated Badgers slumped to a 3-0 defeat at the Glassworld Stadium and Ramshaw was bitterly disappointed to see a lack of commitment from all of his players.

Their lack of fighting spirit was particularly irksome to Ramshaw as he had specifically asked his players to give it their all for the season run-in.

Ramshaw told the Nottingham Post: "Some of the players were an absolute disgrace, and I've told them that.

"There was no work ethic from some of them, and that's the one thing I have specifically asked for over the last few weeks.

"I am really disappointed. They've let me down, some of their team-mates down and the fans down that had travelled to support us.

"There were some who were superb, it wasn't everyone by any means, but those who have let me down won't be staying at this club beyond this season.

"They are young lads, and we've tried hard to mature them but there's no excuse for not working hard."

Ramshaw has just returned to Nottinghamshire following a scouting trip in America and admitted he is considering bringing in some new faces from abroad.

He added: "I was over in America for a week and it was just to get things ready for the summer and perhaps look at a few players.

"I'd certainly be interested in a few of them.

"It's a nice opportunity to broaden my horizons and perhaps bring one or two things back to Eastwood, and after that performance I think we'll need it."
