Wish there was a bus running fae the Gunner/Craigie club to the match this weekend like so many times over the last decade - these occasions with friends, family and the wider green army are always the highlight of the year.

Morning all,
I’ve posted an update for November here https://tinyurl.com/y2q8p4rs
I’ll lift and drop the text into this forum too - pictures embedded in the link.
Past updates for 2020 can be found here https://kieranpower858.wixsite.com/kpupdate-1/
Keep doing what you do, here if you need me - kpower@hibernianfc.co.uk ✅

Morning all,
That’ll be another month whizzing past. How are things at your end? Green light at the end of the COVID tunnel starting to appear. Keep doing what you do. I'm always available for supporters should they need help (Hibs related or not) - kpower@hibernianfc.co.uk.
We’ve not taken all the opportunities presented to us since I last put out an update - and that’s frustrating - there is always room for improvements, more wins and playing the type of football we’ve seen in chunks this season so far and with 7 games in December (kind in opposition running order when compared against the last two years ) there is a big chance to really kick on into 2021. Let’s do it Hibs.
____
https://www.hibernianfc.co.uk/articl...eeann-dempster
This week the club announced that Leeann Dempster will be leaving the club (remaining in role to ensure a smooth transition). Lots of great words passed on from supporters and players (current and former), better than anything I can add. Her leadership over the last 6 and a half years sets the club up perfectly for the next chapter and most importantly for future generations of Hibernian supporters. Thank you Leeann.
Leeann: “The club had been relegated when I joined, and I was determined – with the help of a terrific group of people – to rebuild and restore the club to make its supporters proud on and off the pitch. The Cup win was the highlight, of course, but there have been many fantastic moments.
“I think it is genuinely the right time, both for the club and for me, to move on to a new chapter. It has been an intense and fulfilling time of my life. I have grown to love the club and the Hibernian family, but the club is in good hands and has an exciting future ahead of it. I wanted to make sure Ron settled in following the transaction, and I think we have achieved that. I’ve enjoyed working with him and I have learned a lot in the process. Supporters should be optimistic and excited about Ron’s plans for the club’s future, and I know they will continue to support the club in the magnificent fashion that they have done during my time, especially during recent months when they absolutely stepped up when we most needed them.
“I thank every one of them for making this job such an enjoyable one. Now I look forward to the excitement of taking on a new challenge.”
______________________________
I would like to update you on what I’ve brought to the board’s attention on behalf of supporters.
Return to support route map
We all want fans back at Easter Road when it's safe to do so. The club has worked with great effort on a number of different plans to get ready for our return and it would be great to share some of these plans with supporters in a timely manner.
KP – I've also had a lot of feedback regarding performances of recent. I can't influence our results but I can certainly pass on supporter feelings & comments (positive and constructive) and continue to do so without edit.

Hibernian seal strategic partnership with Charleston Battery
https://www.hibernianfc.co.uk/articl...leston-battery
At the start of the month the club confirmed the formation of a strategic partnership with Charleston Battery, based in South Carolina in the US.
KP - The club stated earlier in the year (and again at the AGM in February) that they intended to enter into partnerships with different clubs to widen their network and this one is the first. Charleston are absolutely ecstatic to partner up with a club with such a fantastic history and brand as Hibernian. Hopefully some of our development players can take up learning in a completely different environment. The partnership extends our scouting network and opens up collaboration on other aspects too (sports science, marketing, ticketing, sponsorship, community engagement - always good to learn with new eyes).

Darren McGregor treasuring mentor role
Darren McGregor spoke earlier in the month about loving the mentor role at the club. He also states his appreciation for pulling on the famous green and white jersey the older he gets, it means the world to him. Extract from his interview with Scott McDermott below.
“Sometimes as young men we may mask our feelings. But he (Nisbet) sees Hibs as a sanctuary, somewhere he can forget about his troubles.
“So I just said to him: ‘Look, I don’t want to make a big song and dance but I know how you’ll be feeling so I’ll be here if you need to talk.’
“I didn’t want to put any pressure on. I just wanted to let him know that I’d experienced it and I’ll be there for him.
“I’m sure every other guy in the dressing-room is the same. It’s just about being a human being and recognising when someone is going through a tough time after trauma in their life.
“You have to let them know you’re there. Especially when you get older, there’s a duty of care to some of the younger players.
“I remember what it was like at 24 and not being sure where to turn.
“As long as he knows the support is there, you don’t need to shove it down anyone’s throat.
“The reason I reached out is because I never really had that. Maybe I never looked for it.
“I was always a guarded person. I tended to keep my emotions quite close and, with hindsight, that maybe hurt me by not dealing with it.
“Credit to Nizzy for the way he has acted throughout and how mature he has been. It has been remarkable.”
“Football can help massively, that’s your release. I found that as well.
“Any bad news, you can leave outside because this is a sanctuary. The main thing for Kevin is to keep training well.
“His emotions might bubble up sometime – or never bubble over. It depends how he takes it.
“But as long as he knows there are guys in the changing room looking out for him.
“This could be the making of him. When you suffer trauma or difficult times you either use it as motivation, inspiration to go on and be successful, or you can let it destroy you.
“Knowing the character of Nizzy, I’m sure it will be the former and he’ll use his dad to motivate him for the rest of his career.”
“I don’t regret seeing out my career here because the chance I was given a year and a half ago was unbelievable.
“We were probably one of the first clubs in Scotland to offer contracts like this, where I have a responsibility to mentor and look after the young boys, helping them to develop.
“But as a footballer, I still feel I’ve got a lot to give as well.”

Brilliant update absolutely superb.
Really interesting the Darren McGregor role and comments about his support for Kevin Nisbet which sounds a fantastic thing for the club to put in place. Also agree he still has something to offer as a player as yesterday showed clearly.

Thanks for updates.
Could you mention that the East Stand / North stand need power washed or some advertising / Hibs branding added to it.
It’s a popular route to travel past and often some people’s 1st view of the stadium.
I know it’s not essential but thought I would mention and see if it could be improved.

Morning all,
End of a year like no other. I hope there is positives for you, Hibs will continue to make you proud wherever they can. Please keep you and yours safe & well into 2021. I'm always available for supporters should they need help (Hibs related or not) - kpower@hibernianfc.co.uk.
We're playing well at the moment - team stats circulating on the web (shot per game/on target, possession, defence resilience compared against our competitors is very strong) and the individual player stats the club has been circulating regularly on social channels - is all very positive. Back to a 'normal' transfer window I believe and we've put ourselves in a great position to make things happen. Some big games coming up, including a Semi Final in January (Sat 23rd January). Keep at it Hibs.

This month we were given the sad news former Hibs left footed magician, playmaker and one of the bravest of them all, Alex Cropley has been diagnosed with dementia.
Despite the setbacks he endured on the pitch he kept on going and I've nae doubt that'll be the case now. Hibernian supporters stand with you Sodjer.

I would like to update you on what I’ve brought to the board’s attention on behalf of supporters.
Sharpen Hibs TV
Some supporters - at home (via our different platform offerings) and international fans - have flagged service interruptions (visual or audio) intermittently at a handful of games recently. Continue to provide supporters the best service as possible at all times.
KP – There is sometimes a lot we can't control with the stream, and instances of bad luck too, but there is always the opportunity to sharpen the product with our digital partners, controlling what we can to ensure we provide the best service to our loyal supporters.

Hibernian announce partnership with Stenhousemuir
Stenhousemuir strategic partnership agreed - Hibernian FC
KP - Following hot on the heels of the Charleston Battery link up in November, we have another, this time closer to home with Stenhousemuir. Another brick in the player development pathway. Good insight from Graeme in the article above.
Forbes Sports covered our partnership with Charleston (including others best ignored). Some very useful detail found here nonetheless - Player Development Is Top Priority In USL-Scottish Premiership Club Partnerships (forbes.com)
