Brown takes Caley plaudits

Monday Nov 28 2005 07:41

Inverness Caledonian Thistle midfielder Ian Black paid tribute to team-mate Mark Brown after the 1-1 draw with Dundee United.

Brown made a number of fine saves, the pick of which was a fingertip effort to deny Terrors striker Lee Miller's header.

After the stalemate, Black said: "Mark's save when he got a fingertip to the ball was fantastic, but to be fair he has been producing that kind of stop for us all season and indeed throughout his lengthy unbroken spell in goal.

"He is a great goalkeeper and a really good shot-stopper, which fills us outfielders with confidence, because we know if we make a mistake he can bail us out of trouble by producing a top-class save.

"Mark is very consistent and the fact that he has played so many games in a row for us shows how reliable he is."

Brown has now racked up 152 consecutive appearances for Caley.
