This year seems to be one of the worst for low attendances at certain tracks to the extent where clubs are being forced to close or sell (Birmingham, Eastbourne & also reported low crowds at Peterborough)
Yet some clubs like Coventry & Kings Lynn have had good crowds still. Most meetings at Coventry have been busy even when we haven't got a full team.
Why do you think it is that fans in certain areas are not attending? Can understand with eastbourne as too many meetings against heavy depleted teams but Birmingham were top of league for most of last season and still low crowds?
