At a meeting in the Hibs Club this evening the feedback from the recent Future of Hibernian survey was announced. It was a positive meeting with some positive decisions and a fuller report will be posted once the notes are all complied.
Of the 4086 who did the survey over 1600 are offering their skills and experiences to help being a united and positive change to our club.
Hibs fans final survey results
4086 surveys completed by Hibs fans over the past month 1040 of these were paper survey's collected at matches and around Leith and the rest were gathered on line. We also removed a number of surveys clearly from non Hibs fans.
It is known that the current owners are willing to discuss change and offers have been made. Do you believe it is time for supporters to discuss the ownership of Hibernian and look at different options going forward?
Yes 84%
No 10%
Dont know 6%
Would you be interested in attending an event where clubs such as Borussia Dortmund, Portsmouth and Dunfermline share how their ownership models work and the experiences they've had?
Yes 69%
No 18%
Dont know 13%
If fans got the chance to become more involved in the ownership and running of the club, would you be willing to join a membership scheme to provide extra income?
Yes 68%
No 20%
Dont know 12%
If so where would you prefer the income to be spent? Player Squad, Youth Academy or stadia and facilities?
Player squad 73%
Youth Academy 13%
Stadia and Facilities 7%
Other 7%
Do you agree that Easter Road Stadium should be safeguarded as the future of Hibernian Football Club and any decision to change this must be made by the supporters?
Yes 80%
No 16%
Dont know 4%
Do you have any other comments or issues that should be known about or considered?
Trust the current leadership of Dempster to continue to improve the dire situation at HFC. Needs to be allowed the time to fulfill her goals (at least 2-3 years)
Wouldn't want outwright fan ownership.
Must strive for a more successful club,in all areas,on and off the field,better communication throughout the club.
Its clear the current owners are no longer taking the club forward. We need to change the way our club is run.
Speculate to accumulate the fans will come if there is something to watch for years we have short changed with poor management appointments and lack of investment in the team
Consider stadium development wherever most valuable for sustainable future; Supporter ownership will kill the club as the income will NEVER be enough and setbacks will snowball. We are NOT Portsmouth and BDortmund started from a very different place.
I support the ownership and control of the club by the fans
I would be prepared to contribute as a shareholder rather than by providing donations.
I would have to see how a fan ownership investment will work and the costs involved to the fans not to just keep the club afloat but to move forward successfully

Would you be willing to get involved in a campaign to buy the club if required?
Yes 67%
No 33%
