    Famous 5 stand

    Is anyone up to speed with what’s happened in the Famous 5 stand. We were told it was going to be some kind of NHS type drop in facility that would provide great income. Did this happen?

    Judging by the response to your very pertinent question it appears no-one has a clue. The whole thing is a bit of a mystery.

    It has indeed gone very quite I know there were also various other plans drawn up including hotel accomodation but your right it seems to have died a death.
    Maybe a direct question to LD might help

    I heard they're going to let it out on Air BnB.

    Nah.

    It's going to be a safe-injecting zone for heroin users. Much more in keeping with our traditional values.

    Its been ages since Hibs announced the deal with the NHS and nothing has happened, I wonder if its fallen through. Personally I think it would make a great supporters bar.

    It was officially launched on 16 March 2016 at an event in the Scottish Parliament. Not really heard a peep since. That’s now over 2 years ago.

    Hopefully one of the fans reps can answer this.

    Thanks to those who have replied, but this was supposed to be a significant revenue stream and the reason for my question. If anyone can shed anymore light on this it would be greatly appreciated. Cheers

    Because of my work, I do know that there are ongoing Hibs/NHS discussions and dealings, but I'm not privy to exactly what they are.

    When were any of them last on here like what was promised when looking for votes??

    Anyway, not looking for an argument, just my opinion that they should be more visual on here as well as other social media sites

    During business hours that day? We still had to play the replay against ICT when it was announced, then. That wasn’t just two years ago, it was an era ago.

    There should be no need for emails to LD. The club know what gets talked about on here, and this deserves a public explanation.

    Not sure what you mean by that. They both have accounts on here.

    It’s not difficult to see what I mean.

    It’s one thing having an account, it’s another being active

    What would you like them to do, though? In the past, one or other has been on to respond to specific issues. Other than that, I'm not sure what, in particular, they could do.
    Do you mean something like a regular surgery?

    All I know is that a convenient and convivial pre match watering hole is no longer available (for adults on the top floor) thus a good revenue stream to the Club is no longer available. Makes sense? Nah not really.

    Even just an update on what they have been doing, what they have been involved in etc would be good.

    There have been a number of posts on here that have mentioned along the lines of “maybe the reps could help here” and they are nowhere to be seen.

    And the end of access to the lift/relocation of folk. I’ll be honest, i’d forgotten about the whole thing until this thread. I just assumed it had happened. If it hasn’t, why not? Is it still on? When? We deserve an update from our reps on this (like now, if you are looking in ). The alternative is that we speculate on the turnover figure when the next accounts come out. That really won’t be good enough. Communication is a big thing now, yes?

    Has anyone been up on the top floor of late of the FF ?

    I've worked on joint projects with the NHS in the past. Progress, even when you think everything's been agreee, can be glacial at times.

    To be fair on the reps it would be a full time job trawling through every thread and post on here to see if they had been mentioned.

    When someone wants a response from a rep maybe they should PM, or contact them in some another way, to make sure they are aware.

    The Bounce has a system where a member can be tagged in a post at that member gets an email informing them of the post and it's contents. They normally reply.

    I'm not defending the absence of reps from the forums, I personally think they should be much more visible, but we need to be more realistic regarding mentions.
