Yeah but...

they're hardly going to make public the fact that they're gambling 87% of turnover in the hope that the club get back to the Premiership. By Doncaster saying it's a 'calculated gamble', I think it's obvious that he indicated a sizeable proportion of total income was being invested in that gamble.

There's transparancy and there's transpancy.
