I think the announcement of Couttsy's replacement will be almost as big around here as the Juddy announcement.

Kind of fitting the story broke in the Daily Telegraph.

He looks like a yr 10 work experience kid.

Still....even if he was, he'd probably do at least as good a job as Coutts

There's no need to 'replace' Ian right away. Between the likes of Jay, Luca, Michelle and Clinton Bown they have Comms covered and all those people understand the landscape. Allocate responsibility from the business plan and if need be get a consultant to come in and work through any gap analysis over the next 12 months. The Coutts job was superfluous to the clubs needs. As a media manager he was ok, but Michelle Trewartha was employed to do that. The digital stuff was never his forte, so Clinton Bown was brought on to manage that. Luca and Jay are young, brash and have probably stagnated having Coutts as their boss. But at least they seem to understand it. There's room for improvement, but this will make the club look a hell of a lot better in 2014. I'm not expecting anything big on or off the field in 2013.

Maybe they can coax Roy Hampson out of retirement.

Is the missing word in this sentence "in" or "with"?
