Yeah he probably wins the tender because he puts in the cheapest tender, he can do this because he merely plays the same things over and over again, Mike Harding is a very fine misician, singer and songwriter, but he is a total CRAP broadcaster, he is long overdue for retirement and should be replaced with someone with more of an understanding of good folk music unlike Mike who thinks his only criteria is to improve audience figures, and if he has to play ' pop ' type music to do it ,       then that is his idea of good broadcasting.
