Your "gagged" point feels right .....Iirc. Tracey had previously committed an update on this matter after a board meeting a couple of months ago. It never appeared. It is now clear from the recent statement that this matter was not concluded over one board meeting, it took successive meetings to agree a position..This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.

The fans reps should have simply updated in the mean time...a truthful statement of "the matter was discussed, the board have not concluded their views yet and it will be further explored at the next meeting"...would have been an honest and clear way of providing an update. The fact that Tracey didn't come back in it , does suggest a request not to - as she has been pretty good at engaging on a range of topics ..
inconsistent communications approaches confuses us fans ...we don't expect to get all the answers if they are not there neither can we expect to agree with all of the views and decisions - but keep us updated in line with commitments- that's all I ask for

It's a fair question, I watched the video when they were pitching for votes and he definitely said he'd be more accessible than previously.
I've yet to hear a word from him on any subject since he was re-elected.

Its funny how you are right on here sticking up for him, when it seems he wont for some reason or other?
Do you remember his words when he wanted to be voted in again?

I know I have been critical of the fans reps, but I feel for them (or Tracey anyway) as she has been badly let down by the board and clearly told to say nothing. I guess that shows what our board think of the fans reps.
Frank is another matter. You need to know him or know where to find him, but all is Ok cos he attends functions to represent the club and holds the licence on behind the goals and can tell us what is going on...........

I don't know Frank Dougan but I know who he is.
It is a bit unfair to say he's not very visible.
He's about as visible a Hibs fan as it is possible to get.
You see him at every game, somewhere or other.
When there are mad ticket scrambles he is there, trying to smooth things out.
He may not be the most visible online (which I suppose may be a fair and reasonable criticism in this internet age) but for some folk the internet just isn't their thing.
It's easy to forget that with Hibs, a lot exists beyond hibs.net - I think (from little knowledge other than going to Hibs games and speaking to fellow fans) that Frank does a cracking job engaging with Hibs fans in all the important areas outwith the internet.

Can tell you he is thoroughly fed up of the constant criticism, of him, Tracey and the Club. He used to go to the games to enjoy them, not so sure that's the case anymore. I only stick up for him as he is a friend, as I'm sure you would do too if roles were reversed"There's class, there's first class and there's Hibs class" - Eddie Turnbull

Everything she says are his thoughts too, brilliant, i had a wife like that once.
When he said during nominations that he'd have to be more social media friendly, what he really meant was i will get someone else to do it for me.

There must be a way for the fans reps to engage with the people they represent and who actually voted them in !

If i failed to do something i'd said during the run up to the reps vote, after been criticised for not doing it the previous year, but promised that would change if i was voted back in.
I'd expect that to be questioned.

I enjoy going to see Hibs, without getting involved in the politics of it

Never comments on the games or manager or anything at all really!
He must have known going in for the role that it would mean constant criticism. That's all directors ever get! If he us fed up with it and it starts to ruin his own experience of watching Hibs he would probably be best jacking it in when his term is up.
The concept of fans reps has probably run it course anyways.

And if he does not want confrontation, the fans rep job is not for him?
