I don't believe this to be the case. Leigh had zero players on its books at this stage and yet still made top 5.
Playing squad budget is twice that of Rams according to last nights forum. Rams rumoured to be spending about £300k so that equates to about £600k plus whatever extra by better than expected gate receipts.
I would expect us to be spending around same as or higher than 3/4 of the league.
So, if Kear's claims on player spend from a couple of months ago were true you'll have a bigger budget for 2020 than you did in 2019.......
Although, TBF, £300k sounds a lot for Dewsbury and they've already announced the budget for 2020 will be lower than in 2019 even with the extra income from the Bulls deal (not sure how the same person trying to increase income whilst at the same time actively trying to remove an income stream isn't a conflict of interest
). For comparison Fev's 2019 playing budget was considerably less than £600k.
