I thought it was 3 months after he left the payroll, and that was going to be a while after his last show
No, I'm saying he was on leave and still a bbc employee for some time following his last show and he couldn't do any radio work during that period. Once his contract ended he can't go back to the bbc on a freelance basis for 3 months.
You sure? I heard that the Beeb can't re-employ old radio presenters for three to four months after they were 'let-go' ie made surplus to requirement, even on a freelance basis. Burns hasn't been gone that long, as he?
I believe he only officially left in September. It would be something like mid December before he could work for humberside again. Never know, he could turn up in a cracker around Xmas.
Some people just like to be nasty . Not sure what Mike White as done for that tirade . He seems a decent enough commentator to me and certainly comes across as a nice enough Guy
