In hindsight i guess the double headers were probably very draining every week and he has a more focussed aproach this year that is bringing results to go along with his natural talent. Berwick Bullets only have 6 NL matches left, so Leon will get a lot more races for Wolves, even if only riding 3 times a match! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quick count shows 10 Wolves matches left plus play offs. I can't fault his ambition and its a wise move when his form is currently on the crest of a wave and long may it continue. Getting a chance in a winning team isn't something that comes around all that often (nobody say once a season!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve0 5,517 Posted June 24, 2021 I read that Silverstone can have full capacity (140,000 spectators) for the British F1 GP in July - surely that is a sign that all restrictions will be lifted Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are pre conditions attached. Earliest for speedway is going to be Monday 19th July, as the next date the government is still considering - but it has not been confirmed.

Ghosty 500 Posted June 24, 2021 On my last visit to Monmore Green only 50% of the spectator area was being used, if this is still the case surely it doesn't take a rocket scientist to sort the crowd compacity out! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's the council have come up with the figures that's why CVS is in talks with them to allow more fans in. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OveFundinFan 4,139 Posted June 24, 2021 Thought I read on BSF Wolverhampton may have to close due to low crowd restriction. Open up the other parts of the stadium and get more people in, the safe limit is sure to go up if more can be accommodated as it is a %age basis. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Given the average age of a speedway fan - you would have thought that most have already been double jabbed - so it does seem harsh to have a blanket sports policy that might end up putting the final nail in the coffin for British Speedway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SSL84 541 Posted June 26, 2021 Well after a few weeks of talking with the local council wolves will be allowed more fans on the outside but fans have got to wear masks all the time, but at least keeps the club going which as got to be good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
screm 8,052 Posted June 26, 2021 So Leon Flint makes to the European Under-19 Final after finishing in third place. Good day for the Brits all round as he will be joined in the final by Drew Kemp and Jordan Palin. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
