She used to be very prominant and proactive . Now you don't hear from her. Why is That ? . She is the current CEO of Hibs unless I am mistaken .Miss her drive and enthuisam. I guess the upcoming AGM will be pivitol to her role going forward.

This and she doesn't really want to be seen as soaking up the limelight when the focus is on the team, I think she mentioned in her last HTV interview that it was a conscious decision to leave her media appearances for particular events.

I do however agree that it'd be good to hear from her more regularly, I think she's a talented speaker and always conveys positivity and reason. I'm sure the AGM will be a rather significant one with the new ownership so it could well be a case of Leeann having to stay quiet until the actual strategy is announced, then she has something to talk about.

Was also very bust during the transfer window handling the loans and transfers.

Being a bit busy. IMO the club behind the scenes has had the biggest trauma/change put on it in my lifetime and this is going to keep a CEO rather busy.

She goes in at 7am every morning and starts the working day with a joint followed by a couple of bacon baps, sleeps until 2pm then goes home. Is that what you wanted to hear?

Most likely, I’m just speculating that a guy who has come in from out of the blue and has dropped hints about plans all through his tenure so far will have ideas that will keep a CEO busy.

I thought he was taking months to decide what the grand plans are and evaluating all areas of the club? Hopefully the ceo is working with the other departments at this time in making sure we have a sponsor next season instead of failing to do so then saying there would be loads of community based initiatives coming up in the coming months (June) and changes around the ground to promote our in house sponsor that just hasn’t happened and absolutely nobody has been held accountable for.

I clearly said in my post it was my own opinion, my own speculation. Don’t highjack my post to have a pop, do it off your own back. LD has made mistakes, she’s also had triumphs. Like everyone in life.

I’ve lots of good to say, Dempster has been a ultimate success for the club apart from the sponsor shambles and she’s been a success.

If anyone was hijacking anyone’s post it was you, saying something then later saying it was just your way of thinking when someone else asked probably intrigued like I was waiting for the reply.

I am looking forward to the AGM very much and to hearing the outcomes of the examination of each department within the club. That said, I sincerely hope that our new owner has also taken the time to submit an analysis of his own role and expectations. The resulting report at the AGM should be most interesting

I think it is a reasonable question to ask. I've no doubt she has been busy behind the scenes, but the last time we heard anything of note from her was after the guy had a swipe at Tavernier - when was that; over a year ago?

There seems to have been a lot of silence since Ron came in.

Agree with this. Probably keeps her head down to fend off the absolute dafties on Twitter and Facebook who’ve never got a good word to say about her or the club

And unfortunately there’s a decent amount of them. And they’re usually the first to cry when she’s “gone missing”

Why do some of our suoport have this obsession with hearing from Leeann Dempster all the time? We didn't have the same calls for Rod Petrie or Tom Farmer to be giving constant updates and I can't think of any other clubs where that happens, only ones that you could argue did (past tense) were Hearts and Rangers when they were trying to placate the masses for poor performance or had the begging bowl out.

The team are doing OK, not brilliant but not bad. Definitely been green shoots of recovery since the season started. Players beginning to settle and perform as we'd hoped at start of the season. What looks like a good window in Jan. What would we gain from a vague statement from Leeann if there's nothing specific to share?

The big issue is that in this age of twitter etc any social media vacuum is filled by tinfoil hat wearing radges and if Hibs dont give us stories then the bams will. It took about 5 minutes for the Petrie hating balloons to turn their guns on LD after Ron Gordon took over.

It doesnt have to be communication specifically from LD - look at Motherwell, who do great social media. Its not all from Alan Burrows, but it keeps their fans engaged, upbeat, involved.

Hibs need to be all over this and I hope its part of the plan we will hear about at the AGM.

Trauma? Mercer was Trauma. What we have now is an intensive change programme consuming everyone behind the scenes time. Thing like poaching some of the SRU's commercial team, the develop/upgrade to HTC, new Football dept structure etc.

Trauma might have been a bit of a strong term, but it’s the biggest period of change the club have seen since Mercer.

Long time listener, first time caller.

Personally, I think it al comes down to the AGM. When Ron took over it was well documented that his versionwould be well constructed, thought out etc, and brought to us at the nextmeeting.
Unfortunately we are still waiting and the silence from LDisn’t exactly helping. Another poster made note of the social media work doneat Motherwell… it really is fantastic and (I would guess) is at minimal cost.
We, as fans, just want to know what the next step is… LDshould be one of the people at the club who are conveying the message.

Don’t think it’s a strange post at all..quite factual and reasonable for me..she used to be very communicative - now much less so...reasonable to ask why

Think the comms for the leadership has been pretty mixed of late tbh - they seem to not say anything until they have a big message and also undervalue the need to keep undermining key messages to fans

Social media work being done by Hibs now is fantastic and funny. Does Motherwell’s CEO do their social media? What was Motherwell’s CEOs last statement? You know as we’re comparing clubs. I bet you the majority of Scottish football fans can name our CEO, a lot more than can do the same for Motherwell. I don’t get this obsession with LD with some of our fans, I know there is an unhealthy hatred of her in the Hibs twitterverse due to her affiliation to the huns, but even the none mentally disturbed fans seem to want a statement from her weekly. Our social media communicates with fans. RGs ‘vision’ for Hibs was always gonna be announced at the AGM which now has a date. I just don’t get why we want to hear from our CEO every 5 minutes. I would much prefer her to be like Petrie and speak only when necessary and just get on with her job, which she’s being doing a pretty good shift in for the last 6 years.

Perhaps RG has had her looking at things and reports that he wanted. They have employed some new staff in accounts and looking for someone right now in marketing and sales.
Small things have been happening and like most I'm sure some exciting things will be announced on the way forward.

The stadiam internally looks tired and is in desperate need of a refurb we forget how old it already is. I think the hospitality areas will get paint job , new carpets etc need not cost a fortune but needs done.
The food offering at the match is rightly slaughtered and that will hopefully be addressed.
These are not exactly exciting things but will return more money to the club if done right.
I expect major sponsorship deals to be announced again more money to the club.
Partnership with another football club is something that has been talked about so hopefully something exciting there.
A overhaul of the training complex perhaps even the staffing we would well to look at st Mirren and Hamilton who seem to unearth good players regularly.
5 million in the bank is brilliant and that should be used wisely to make more money as well as strengthening the team .
Now that's just the tip of the iceberg I think LD might be quite busy

I don’t feel it’s been too big a jump.

As with everything it’s just opinions.

There just seemed to be a group of people on this thread who, despite the fact we are going through change at the club, feel they should be entitled to updates continuously.

I think it’s way to optimistic to be calling the summer window a success.
Doidge has done well, as did Naismith. The rest have been squad players at best. James and Vela, worse than that.

Apologies, I wasn’t really counting Allan because he was signed by Lennon but I’ll give you that. If everyone is fit, do Newall and Jackson make the starting line up?

They're both making a solid claim for a start, but the point is that everyone isn't fit and they've been a success when they've played.

Yes, they have peformed that well recently that if everyone is fit they shouldn't be left out.

I actually agree that Jackson should on recent performances. Would have been better if we didn’t have to wait till February to see it from him.
With Newall, I don’t think I would have him in before Docherty, Omeonga or Allan in a 3 man midfield.

Jackson has been better in his games than McGregor and Porteous.

I’d definitely have newell in before omeonga imo

Newell’s been massive for us in our recent form

I agree he has done well recently (again we shouldn’t have to wait till after Xmas to see it) but I still prefer Omeonga for winning the ball in midfield (his passing needs a bit of work).

I don’t feel it’s been too big a jump.

As with everything it’s just opinions.

There just seemed to be a group of people on this thread who, despite the fact we are going through change at the club, feel they should be entitled to updates continuously.

Not really, all that's happened is we had a period where it seemed she was always saying one thing or another and talking the club up at every opportunity.

We then went from that to virtually nothing, and someone started a thread saying that. People agreed and some folk then seemed to take offence and started batting down the hatches in defence.

I liked it when she was talking the club up, she does a very good job of it.

That's about right, to be fair. :agree:

I think a good line of communication with the support is important. Maybe a quarterly update or something similar would work?

Why are folks so obsessed with individuals? Our clubs finest hours were team efforts.
Some are better at communicating than others and Rod->Leeann is like night and day. We often forget the old Scottish proverb - "say little but say it well"

I agree, she was very good at it.

All I said on this thread initially was that she’s probably been busy with the takeover and preparing for things like the campaign we’ve just seen launched.

Maybe she felt it was all a bit pointless after the Lennon debacle?

Again, just speculating.

My post you replied to initially wasn’t overly serious.

Maybe that is part of Power's update posts are taking the place of?
