Hello, You are all forgetting that the BBC are under pressure to cut the costs of high paid stars. Chris is free lance which is very expensive. Radio 1 would save no end by using an in-house presenter. With contracts up for renewal soon it looks likely Chris will be get a much smaller offer which it sounds like they do not believe he will take. I think they are all expecting him to go within the next 18 months but it sounds like this news has been put out by the media to ensure he goes sooner. Gordon Smart's articles don't usually make front page unless there is credible information behind it. The BBC are very unlikely to do anything but deny this report. It is in their interests to support their DJs until they leave. It sounds like they are fearing the RAJAR figures will not remain successful.
