    Not an inspiring lineup to get folks to turn up. But I hope the place is packed to say goodbye to an EL star.

     

    Considering the esteem in which Leigh is held throughout the speedway world, it is a very disappointing line-up. Expected we might see the likes of Hancock, Crump and Hampel, but no.

     

    pretty poor line up to be honest considering the increase in admission cost.

     

    Got to agree - Gutted at the line up to be honest :sad:

     

    Take out Leigh, Rune, Zagar and Holder it doesnt look that much better than the Welsh Open line up :neutral:

     

    There must be reasons as to why top names arent there, but I do feel it will affect the crowd in a big way

    Whats happened to all the fans of the IOW?!

     

    There seems to be very little interest in any of the threads on the forum about the IOW - take the last few IOW meetings, just the preview and the result - no comments or anything :sad:

     

    I dont know what the crowds were like before they went just NL, but there seemed to more interest
