Rangers Director Douglas Park Promises To Look Into Club's Spending

New Scottish Championship side Rangers Dir Douglas Park has "promised an investigation to uncover" why the Glasgow club spent more than £70M ($106M) in the past four years, according to the BBC. The bus tycoon was "invited to join Dave King's new-look board after the old regime was voted out on Friday." Park said, "There has been an absence of corporate governance and time will be required to study the various contracts and deals which have been put in place. ... This club has been badly neglected and it has been used for the benefit of individuals." Park promised "more openness about the club's affairs and urged the club to drop its victim mentality." He said, "The days of secrecy are over and, for the moment, questions about our plan for Rangers can be answered in one word: victory. Victory however long and hard the road may be" (BBC, 3/9).
