“This is the role I’ve been striving towards, at Scunthorpe I wanted to be in a head of commercial role.

“I’m very fortunate Chesterfield have backed me.”

Nichols introduced himself to supporters with an article in the club’s programme and hopes to become acquainted with as many regulars as possible.

“In the first programme my mugshot was in there, massive. That was my idea, because I needed people to know who I was,” he said.

“I’m really looking forard to meeting more fans and businesses.”
