Will Leahys show to me axed !
Ive been listening to his show for years and find it fantastic, his jnlr figures are great, and his on air style unique. Why cant they get rid of Dave Fanning and Larry Gogan !

have being listening to will leahy for years, every (almost) afternoon....my afternoons are never gonna be the same again

he was great company

so disappointed colm hayes is the replacement...dont think il be tuneing into 2fm...again.

bbability · 05-02-2014 7:51pm

Looking forward to Colm Hayes on Drivetime, possibly the only positive to take out of new daytime schedule

finisklin · 05-02-2014 7:52pm

Tubs is the problem child and given his contract with rte and the late late show and the twine that pulls in, he cant be cast to one side. Totally out of sync with the new brekkie team.

The contradictions are woeful and glossed over completely. It will only be a matter of time before this jig saw is reassembled again and agin.

Not for the yoof of today.

Gonna miss will leahy.

channelsurfer2 · 05-02-2014 7:56pm

Will was the only decent thing on 2fm. the school disco was great but I guess thats not going to appeal to 15-24 year olds! I bet this time next year it will be same mess with Nicky Byrne getting bored and wanting to move onto something else...

I'd quit on the spot if I was replaced with that elitist muppet Colm Hayes. I think Hayes is arguably the worst DJ on daytime national radio in the country.

Too make it even better Lottie Ryan will be presenting the show WITH Nicky. Oh it just gets worse and worse!

Its the least they could do after working her father to death

I think the class A drugs in his system played a bigger part in his demise to be fair, if there was any truth to your statement the Ryan's would've had RTE up in court years ago.

So he does appeal to somebody then

I for one can't stand the guy so it looks like it'll be Matt Cooper for me anymore on the evening commute.

What a lad to replace will. Colm is as dry as they come. There won't be any fun with him at all

deise man · 05-02-2014 10:27pm

I'd say that the best thing rte could do is to get rid of that Dan healy lad. Any of the decisions he made since taking over 2fm haven't worked. Think one of his first decisions was to ban pre 90s music. Taking will leahy off drive time is another crazy decision. I enjoyed his show in the evening. It made for easier listening than the evening current affairs programmes. Judging by the posts on here and on Facebook I think will had a lot of fans. Maybe healy is just making radical decisions in the hope that one will pay off at some stage. Don't think nicky Byrne will be the one!

marno21 · 05-02-2014 10:44pm

Might as well put a traffic cone in the studio and leave RCS or whatever they use on auto. It would probably be more appealing than what they will be subjected. Steve K, Ben Murray, Andy Mac, Dave Mac and all the drivetime hosts must've been rubbing their hands when they saw this news.

Eeden · 05-02-2014 10:52pm

For me, presenters can be so, so different depending on the time-slot they have, so it will be worth waiting to see how all the presenters suit their new places.

dr Golden · 05-02-2014 10:53pm

Im shocked at the amount of faults everyone on this board seems to have with the new schedule. Why aren't people looking at the positives? 2fm will have live evening programs with young presenters instead of Dave Fanning voicetracking

But that's not the time slot most people have a problem with. There aren't actually many complaining about the 8+ times. Most people are mainly p***ed off that Will Leahy is gone.

I'm not so exclude me from that opinion.

ford fiesta · 05-02-2014 11:53pm

Why can't they just move existing presenters around the schedule...like putting Tubridy back on breakfast and FINALLY giving Dave Fanning the old G. Ryan slot?? Or giving John Clarke The daily golden hour, with Larry playing the current hits at the weekend?

The existing 2FM audience does not want to hear the iRadio type presenters...the majority audience are still there from the 80s/90s anyway.

Oscar Bravo · 06-02-2014 12:56am

does John Clarke still have the sunday show?

JoeA3 · 06-02-2014 1:11am

Is Larry still on lunchtimes? Ricochet has stated his show remains unchanged starting at 2pm.

Les Ferdinand · 06-02-2014 11:09am

When is the show with Bernard O'Shea and Jennifer Maguire starting?

dr Golden · 06-02-2014 11:31am

Larry is moving to weekends. Too

It's getting confusing with changes being announced one by one.

Is anyone actually LEAVING 2FM?

joi99 · 06-02-2014 12:01pm

Funny that with all the changes going on at 2fm that Dan Healy is ignoring the elephant in the room that is Tubs.

Max_Charger · 06-02-2014 1:01pm

Will Leahy would be a very decent replacement for KC on Todayfm when he leaves. I'd love that to happen.

Hes still a practicing solicitor. Coupled with the fact hes not Dublin based and today fm have no limerick studios (afaik) can't see it happening
