Speedway: Reaction from Leon Flint and Simon Stead as Sheffield score big win over Oxford
Transcript
00:00Leon Flint, you were injured the last couple of weeks, you've come back with some style, I think it's your best ever score for Sheffield, you're paid maximum, how do you feel?
00:10Yeah, obviously ecstatic, worked very hard to get to this and just saying before, it's quite a big milestone for us, so yeah, just keep my feet on the ground and try and keep the form up for the rest of the season.
00:24How's your injury feeling?
00:25I certainly didn't show any effects tonight, but yeah, just like, you know, maybe picking up on a bit of a raw or something like that, it kind of just lets me know it's there, but you know, just try and not think about it and get cracked on.
00:43Do you feel like you know the Ellington track pretty well now?
00:46Oh, I think I've still got quite a bit to learn, but you know, when you're making starts, it's a lot easier.
00:52Obviously tonight, it was a bit of a rough start with Tigers losing the first heat 5-1. Did it feel like it was going to be a difficult night at that point?
01:02Not really, I think we all back ourselves to know, you know, we can come back from anything against anyone, so just, you know, kept our heads down and got cracked on.
01:13Simon, Sheffield have won again tonight. It was a bit of a tricky start, but finished well. What was your reaction tonight?
01:23Yeah, I'm really, really pleased, you know, it's nice to get back to full strength with Leon back in the team and Jack back in the team, obviously makes a massive difference.
01:32It's sort of two steps forward, one step back a little bit with Anders taking a knock in heat 1, so that's disappointing.
01:40But hopefully that's not too serious and we're back fighting fit for the next one.
01:45Is there any news on Anders after his injury?
01:48Just a bit early, I think. There's possibly needing to go for an x-ray tomorrow, let the swelling die down a little bit and then take it from there.
01:56So just one that we need to keep an eye on.
01:58Thank you very much.
01:59Cheers.
