Your right about Fletcher but surprisingly for once money just isn't an issue as Hibs are bouncing in the stuff.

I think the delay is due 'to bums on seats' and why take the stadium capacity to 21,000 if your average home support drops back to a more reasonable historical average of 11,000 - 12,000

A single tier is a possibility but it goes against the planning permission already granted which is for a two tier.

GreenMachine can ask him at the AGM

I'm sure there will be questions being asked at the AGM about the stand Sam, but since that meeting isn't until September I would have thought there would be some sort of announcement before then !

At last Septembers AGM, the key announcement of the meeting was on the new East stand. They went into some detail as to what the stand would be like, and the subsequent discussion took up a fair bit of the proceedings. The impression I got, along with just about everyone else there that night was that they were going to announce details regarding fan consultancy and timescales fairly soon after the New Year. Clearly that has not happened, so we will just have to wait to see what develops now.

Interestingly, this may mean nothing, but I don't know if anyone else has noticed that there appears to be some sort of tripod machine testing the ground beside the east stand at the moment. This could mean something is imminent with regard to the stand, but they will have to make some comment soon I would imagine.
