WIN DOLLAR BILL

Foley's large sums can shine on Leith

- TAM McMANUS

NEVER mind Sunshine on Leith. It’s the Champions League anthem they should have been playing.

Joking aside, the potentially exciting new investment at Hibs was the talk of Easter Road on Tuesday - and still is.

Every football supporter dreams of a billionaire buying their club.

Fair enough, Bill Foley is not actually buying Hibs, he's taking a stake, but that in itself from listening to the plans - remains hugely exciting stuff.

The nuts and bolts of it all are still to be fully grasped but the general concept offers a massive opportunity.

Perhaps the most exciting part of it all is that it is not pie-in-the-sky chat.

Talks are already underway and the SFA seem to be set on relaxing the rules in terms of dual ownership to open this door. More importantly, it's not as if this is somebody no one knows.
