None of the major investors at Rangers, King, Ashley or whoever became wealthy by making bad investments. Until a sustainable financial model is worked out, only self serving loans and back-handed deals will be offered up to keep the club afloat and protect investments already made. No announcements will be made on the planned cuts like Murray Park, Albion car park until the season starts and the season tickets have been bought and paid for. (That's if they can do much with Ashley's loan security over them). Over investment and transparency indeed!

I posted a link the other night somewhere else, if you like this thread, you should read what this bloke has got to say, he has spent a fair bit of time putting together the blog and it's a good read: http://mattleslie74.weebly.com/blog/no-more-cards-from-the-deck-for-the-bluff-king I don't personally agree 100% with his conclusions, but it tracks Dave King's rangers-related activities over the last few years quite well.

sugna - interesting read, How much do your calculations take into account; - wage reductions due to the player exodus; - apparent increase in season ticket sales; - loss of retail revenue since the MASH loan and renegotiated terms? It would appear that the income and expenditures will have a different balance this year (not necessarily for the better/worse).
