A Hamilton businessman who knows soccer is linking up with the Tiger-Cats ownership to propose a wintertime bubble dome over Tim Hortons Field to facilitate both professional soccer and recreational use by other groups. The bubble would cover only the field, not the stands and would be removed when football season arrived. According to John McGrane, a retired professional and Olympic soccer player, the project would cost $3 million dollars, all of it to be covered by private enterprise. The scheme is to be considered by City Council next month. McGrane does not want to reveal the name of financial supporters yet, especially the “lead investor” to whom he has been talking.
