The impression I got from his and Dempster’s interviews is they were working on tweaks to the matchday experience. Afraid that those expecting a big announcement are likely to be disappointed. More chance it’s an introduction of vegan pies than a hotel or a marquee signing.

Lets be honest, the area around the stadium is not the best. Tenement flats with authentic inner city domestics and violence on occasions and an industrial estate.Hibs.nets negative posting legend and unofficial ticket agent.

But I'd take a plaza. Or a piazza. In fact I think they're the same thing. And definitely pizza. Make it happen Ron.

It would be excellent if it was something significant, more so for the seethe of the 5 points clear mob.

I suspect I’m one of the people that’s getting a bit carried away but I think it’s the club that have built this up, not over eager fans like me.

I am sure I heard that we would be installing two big (TV) screens in the corners of east stand in the summer. I think I heard it as part of Graeme Mathie interview on Hibs Talk podcast. GM was a also very complementary about Rom and talked about how passionate and energetic he is and how detailed he wants to get into.

Or maybe buying a few wine bars in the Bath area?

Not expecting anything particularly exciting..the club and Ron himself were pretty clear when he came in that the club would continue to run much as it had before.
Not particularly sure why you buy a club and then do that but there you go. Mid table mediocrity it is until we unearth a crop of wonder kids.

Where? The Evening News?

An hotel is pie in the sky.
They costs £thousands per square metre to build so even if they want tiny rooms with no facilities like a bar, restaurant, pool or gym, they're looking at tens of millions.
This is for accommodation at least 2 miles away from the main tourist areas, with a poor outlook and not in an exactly salubrious area compared to what Edinburgh can offer.
It would probably fail, and even if it didn't, it would take decades to pay for itself which is no use to either Ron Gordon or Hibs.

People need to calm down and get off his back a bit imo.
I get everyone is anxious and asks where is he, why did he buy the club etc etc. Personally I don’t want a owner who is in the press doing interviews every 2 minutes. He’s clearly passionate about football and saw us as an attractive team/location.
He has already contributed a lot by wiping out debt and investing a 7 figure sum.
Whether the club put his money and the money saved to good use is another question and not one to be aimed at him.
I can see potentially some of the following
Updated sound system and scoreboard/TV in corners
Standing section
Partnership with another team
Indoor pitch
Updated hospitality
I get people want massive signings but I don’t think our wage structure will be moved too much and rightly so. We have the 4/5th biggest budget in the league yet Motherwell and Livi are above us and many above hearts.
I think it’s more a case of improving the recruitment than chucking in millions - Look at the summer signings Vela, Doidge, Newell, Maxwell and James. They’ll be on or would have been on a healthy wage since they were playing in England, doesn’t mean they’re going to transform us.
Where as we could potentially have had Ambrose, Mulumbu, Shankland etc who know the league and I imagine would have came.
