I honestly cannot believe I am typing this but they actually listened and Anton is coming back to the airwaves. My hands are literally shaking while I type this because I never thought we would actually pull it off after everything that happened with the management changes. Thank you for …

Anton Savage finished with Today FM due to differences with management,. Keith McCormack the CEO of Today FM said he would not be renewing the contract for Anton Savage and his morning show.
In my opinion Anton was one of a handful of reasons to listen to Today FM and he was one of their top presenters.
I want this petition to reflect the annoyance we the public feel at the format change in Today FM and for taking the joy out of our mornings. Anton was a humble, kind and knowlegdeable presenter who constantly made me and thousands laugh and smile daily. The board of Today FM and Communicorp need to revisit this decision and reevaluate if the listenership loss is worth it. Tens of thousands have switched off altogether and more will follow.
Please sign this petition if you want Anton to return to his rightful place and control his own show with his own great team on Today FM

Look at these numbers climbing because honestly the radio just feels so dull without Anton even if I keep checking the app hoping for some update. If everybody reading this messages three people right now we might actually hit that thousand mark before I even get my coffee finished.

I really cannot stop checking the count because seeing it climb is honestly the only thing keeping me sane right now. If everyone here just grabbed one extra person to sign we would blast right past the hundred mark before I even get my coffee finished.

Please please - just made my day, such an interesting show- Anton literally could talk about everything and anything in an informed intelligent way and with great understanding - no condescension as has happened with previous hosts - very sadly missed
I'm part of the "younger demographic" that TodayFM are trying to reach and I for one cannot stand another mid - morning with the Canadian. Anton was witty, humourous and seemed genuinely interested in anybody that came on. For the sake of my sanity I need Anton back!
Couldn't believe the news on Friday, I've been singing his praises for 2 years. He's relevant, funny, plays excellent music, thought provoking, intelligent and is the single best interviewer we have in this country right now. Bring him back, you know it makes sense
Big Mistake letting Anton go. Will not be listening to Alison Curtis... and dont mention the war with having gotten Hector on... You've only 2 really really outstanding presenters left... Ian Dempsey and Matt Cooper without them i'd be fully done with TodayFM
I am gutted for Anton. Feels like I've lost a friend. I'm disappointed with Today FM's statement passively aggressively blaming Anton. The powers that be are obviously very out of touch with their listeners suggesting it was for our benefit.
Today FM isn't the same without a proper presenter from 9-12. I now surf the channels looking for an alternative to Anton's show.
So missed.

Today FM lost Ray Darcy and the only person who could replace him was Anton Savage and Today FM fecked that up too. Haven't listened to the station since. Bring Anton back and i will listen again and give him free reign to control is show
