Police on Monday charged a 32-year-old man with attempted murder over the attack on Saturday evening, which left 10 people injured.

Police were still working to uncover a motive but say it didn't appear to be an act of terrorism.

“Everyone at the club, from the board, management and his teammates, along with all staff behind the scenes, sends our heartfelt well wishes to Jonathan for a full recovery, which is also extended to all the victims on board the train,” Scunthorpe said.
