I see this as an admission from GH that he's out of touch and not up to the workload/judgement any more, maybe he recognises that and wants to make something of a step back. Maybe he realises that if RS does go, this is just the latest in a sequence of decisions from him which hasn't worked and the fans ultimately will turn on him. He's not daft. It makes sense to put someone else in now before it gets too hot for himself.
I think this means RS will announce he is leaving as the new role kind of changes his role and what he was brought in to do, I think its a way of keeping face for both RS and GH
