    An American who "made his money in streaming" and now owns his own documentary company. His vision/strategy is to increase global exposure of the club and increase opportunities for further sponsorship, growing the fan-base and generating other revenue streams.

    An Aus/USA/Middle East group who are primarily looking to transform the recruitment side of the club and use more advanced data analytics, machine learning etc. to bring in players across the age-groups of the club to create a culture, style of playing etc. and sell them on for profit.

    If both of these 'investors' can get into the sea, that'd be great.

    Selling out to these ghouls to become some sort of investment vehicle is the beginning of the end for clubs like ours. What happens when ghoul number 1, the "streaming magnate", finds no one gives a toss about a club with no celebrity owners and bails? And when ghoul number 2 finds out that players from Australia, the USA and the middle east are all donkeys who they can't sell, even to mugs in League 1 in England?

    The club may need investment but if that's the best on offer then I'd take relegation. The offer from @rowsdower  sounded more appealing.

    Right, I've somehow been talked into going to IKEA where mobile phone reception is sketchy at best, by the time I come out I want us to have announced a right back, left back and a proven goalscorer. Failing that, I'm eating my own body weight in hot dogs and ice cream. 

    They'll be signed, sealed and injured by the time you get to the self serve area

    It's time for The ThreadTM to run the club. We've spoken about it enough, time to make it a reality.

    First on the agenda, bring back Lionel.

    Lionel aside, is this requirement for "significant investment" some kind of call to the likes of Bournemouth who were linked with making Hibs their feeder club or something? Because that idea can get in the bin. However, who else would invest in a club like ourselves? Any more super-rich fans out there?
