Hoyle said that paying huge wages in the hope of getting promoted is a gamble that he is not willing to take.
"This season our wage bill has gone down to £9m," he told BBC Sport. "The top clubs in this league are paying around £25-30m and that is horrendous."
Huddersfield are currently 13th in the Championship table.
