That's exactly what they'll do. Hart is a coward. He's not about to stand up there and take the heat for a decision that should have been made and announced weeks ago.
That's the point, he doubts he wants to face questions in a press conference so it will likely just be an announcement. This is how UK did it as well so they didn't have to face questions. Probably just a statement. I may be reading it wrong but that is how I read it and interpret it.
