Has just resgined as chairman, ECB regulations has made Denison's position untenable due to recent events.
A shame in some ways because Denison has been visible in his role as chairman and the club has turned a corner off-field. Rising Twenty20 crowds, steady increase of membership intakes, ticket sales for England test matches recovering and Headingley getting major England matches next decade.
Though this has come at expense of generally sub-par domestic cricket performances and continually supporting Andrew Gale when results have been a lot to be desired. I hope the new chairman will actually pay particular attention to the playing and coaching side of things.

So gates are up at Yorkshire ccc so Dennison is OK? Doubt if the 1000's who have lost their jobs at BHS will share that opinion

Yorkshire's financial position does not concern me but the continuing influence the chairman of ECB has on Yorkshire's affairs does. I do find it difficult to comprehend, however, how Yorkshire are in a much stronger financial position when they've just had to go cap in hand to a financial institution to borrow £20m with no indication as to what rate of interest.

Regarding financial situation, Caddick Group received bar takings relating to ground ownership but I believe that arrangement has expired or is expring this year.
Yorkshire aren't borrowing extra money to fund the Football Stand redevelopment. Legal and General have put the money upfront and the facility is getting leased back via Leeds City Council who are acting as guarantor. Hospitality revenue from the new stand should cover the repayments, bearing in mind it will be used by Leeds Rhinos and Yorkshire Carnegie Rugby clubs.
