Rovers narrowly missed out on the play-offs this term and will now be competing with fallen Premier League giants Norwich, Southampton and Charlton in League One. Moore expects the effects of the recession to squeeze budgets, cut down the size of squads at many clubs and force hundreds of professional players to seek work in non-league football. He told the Daily Post: "I can see this close season being the toughest for many managers working below Championship level. "The rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer. "Down here, budgets are going to be cut. You are going to see clubs reducing squads sizes down to 18 to 20 players."
