Flood rode in Britain in 1972, initially for Leicester Lions, joint top scoring in a match against Peterborough Panthers, but riding most of the season with Crewe Kings, for whom he averaged over eight points from 41 matches, including ten paid maximum scores.[1] He also had rides in the top division with Swindon Robins, King's Lynn Stars, and Wolverhampton Wolves, and represented Australasia in a series against England in 1972. 1972 proved to be his only season in British speedway, Flood returning to Australia after a couple of challenge matches for Crewe in April 1973.[1] In 1973 he rode in Australia for Victoria.[2]
