Ron Gordon interview - Sky Sports

[DavieRoy]

I see Ron Gordon has spoken to Sky Sports. Apparently the interview can be downloaded.

I caught a clip on SSN, interesting stuff about COVID-19 planning etc.

There is a 15 minute Ryan P interview up there too. Excellent stuff ..comes over really well....

I will give that one a look too. Good that Sky do that. Sometimes you can’t get a feel for a short clip.

Anybody got a link please?

Just watching the interview, and get a similar feeling to the one i has leaving the AGM - one of pride and excitement. I think Ron’s vision for the club is outstanding, with priorities in exactly the right place, ethically solid, ambitious, and forward looking.

I don’t think it’ll be plain sailing (when is it ever?!) but the foundations he is laying (or plans to lay) have the potential to really push the club on.

Just wish we could get in to watch the team now.

Do you need to have Sky to see the interview or can virgin media customers see it too?

[banchoryhibs]

Tried to watch it on Sky Go but the link took me to Ryan's interview (which is very good). Have to wait until the link is fixed

[SRHibs]

Can someone at least link the Ryan Porteous interview?

Sorry - I don't know how to do that - the video loads directly from my Sky Go app with no link showing

Good interview with Ron on all things hibs,they really pushed him to talk about the challenges facing the club due to the virus,but Ron kept the upbeat confident feel of the conversation going.he speaks incredibly well of the club.i feel by the time COVID has been suppressed and the fans start to return to the stadium,the bond between the support and our owner will be stronger for the experience over the last six months.

I think he must stay in the new town as I’ve seen him a few times around my work when he’s been going to play tennis in the area wearing a Hibs tracksuit. He seems to have put down some roots of sorts here.

I know if he was a bad guy he wouldn’t necessarily be wearing devil horns but I think he just seems like a really normal guy. Spending months at a time here, helping out with the Christmas dinners, passing STF’s due diligence tests and the fact he’s put decent money in without it being wreckless spending suggests I don’t think there’s anything to worry about. I understand people’s natural scepticism but I think he’s passed every test so far with flying colours.

I hope those that are doubting him cut him some slack soon.

2 teams we are speaking about strategic partnerships with.

1 in the USA and one in Scotland. Interesting.

Would make sense if the one in Scotland was a lower league local side.

Wonder who that could be.

Portland Timbers? Play in the same colours as us, in fact green with white sleeves a few seasons ago, a wee bit of a 'hipster' club, which like it or not Hibs aren't far off being, a town roughly the size of Edinburgh and which, I stand to be corrected, hates Donald Trump .... what's not to like

[Haymaker]

Will be interesting to see who it is here in the USA... cheeky preseason tours!!

East Kilbride maybe? They’ve certainly got ambitions.

Exciting interview but that Hibs badge was a major distraction. Ron need to have a word with his tailor and get that centred.

This may be a false memory but I'm sure Portland Timbers have been mentioned on here before?

By the way, your avatar is very naughty, that lady should be wearing safety headwear when she is riding that spikey horsey thing.

Any reason why it could be Portland Timbers, other than the name, don’t know anything about them, and wonder why they would be a good fit

[Callum_62]

Hopefully inter miami

I really don't know Billy. It was simply the name that seemed to ring a bell for me

We do a fair bit of business with Rangers and our most dangerous player has a mystery illness in the lead up to a big game with them...

can you imagine!!?

FWIW, I think Dunfermline might be a shout - potentially part of the Nisbet deal, and there are rumours of SDG and Fraser Murray playing for them this season.

If we can get their bridies and pies, i think it’s worth exploring.

[Renfrew_Hibby]

I'm gonna guess Raith in Scotland but it wouldn't be an MLS side in the US but the level below, someone like the Rochester Rhinos.
