He told the Yorkshire Post: "It is time to move on and look forward. Dennis rang me in the morning and said he just wants to get on with it.

"He wants to rebuild the team as soon as possible. We are getting the club back. The message has to be 'get behind us'. The important thing is we now start moving forward.

"It has been a very difficult time for everyone, but the staff have been fantastic. I know they will be relieved at the result because it means they still have a job.

"We are now looking forward. Season ticket renewal forms went out over the weekend and already they are pouring in. We also have something like 2,000 new season ticket holders on a waiting list."
