FLEETWOOD Mac have cancelled their second gig in a week, just days before they are due to close the Isle of Wight Festival.

The rock band, which formed almost 50 years ago, pulled the plug on a gig in Manchester last night, two days after postponing a show in Birmingham.

Both gigs were cancelled due to illness.

The band is set to headline the main stage at Seaclose Park on Sunday night and festival bosses reassured fans earlier this week that the gig would take place.

But organisers were quick to confirm the band WILL take the stage on Sunday night, despite the second cancellation.
