The Kilmarnock board have apologised to fans following the club's relegation, and promised manager Tommy Wright the funds to rebuild.
A dismal defeat to Dundee on Monday night saw the Ayrshire club crash out of the top flight for the first time in 28 years.
With only five or six players under contract for next season a huge rebuild will be needed, a situation complicated by a season without fans and the loss of Premiership TV money.
But in a message to fans the Killie board insisted Wright will stay on, and promised he'll be given the funds to bounce straight back up.
Director Phyllis McLeish told Killie TV: "We've been looking down the barrel of the gun for more than just a couple of weeks so we have been speaking about what's going to happen in the future.
"We decided last week that whatever happened we were going to stick with the budget that we've got, there wouldn't be a reduction.
"There will be impacts in other areas of the club obviously, turnover is going to go down and we need to manage that but we will manage that.
"We want, if we have to go down to the Championship and now we are, we wanted to give Tommy and the team he's going to rebuild over the summer every possible chance to make it a very brief sojourn in the Championship.
"We are moving forward and we're committed to doing that.
"Next week we'll all rally forward, do our best in the transfer window and move forward.
"We're all united in thinking we do have the right manager now, we all have confidence in him.
"He came in a bit too late, it's not Tommy's fault what happened. We do have the right manager now and can and will rebuild."
Fellow director Cathy Jamieson, who was elected to the board as a representative of the fans, also affirmed faith in the current boss.
She added: "I think it's really important that we have confidence in the manager.
"He knows what he wants to do, he's got a vision for the way forward and as a board we need to back him in that.
"We also need to work with the fans to try and rebuild and I'm certainly hoping that starts as of tomorrow."
And Rugby Park supremo Billy Bowie, a fan since his youth, offered an apology to the supporters.
He said: "I'm really gutted. I'm gutted for the fans as well and, to be honest, I want to apologise to the fans for our performance this year.
"At the moment I'm stuck for words. It's been a tough season for us all but we're going to bounce back."
