Oh well. They can keep trying to push Ed Sheeran's new single but it remains barely in the top 40. Or perhaps they're content with plugging a Rizzle Kicks song that will be lucky to make the top 40 at all.
Even Capital are less transparent than R1.

No, she does need them, the exposure she got from Radio 1 was still big even if they didn't play it as much as they usually play their playlisted tracks.
I'm sorry I like Crazy Stupid Love, but it is still a poor song and they played that as much as they did because it was a Cheryl song, at least they had her on their B-List and then A-List for two weeks. If Cheryl comes back with a really strong song I am sure they will play the hell out of it.
I dont understand how Uk radio works 
they still spin songs that are out from the playlist like 2 or 3 times a day!
Capital still playing it??
