That's some 45 minutes

 

[Twyford Bee]

I take it back. "He didn't even dive!"

 

[Sutton Bee]

I take it back. "He didn't even dive!"

This needs a fishing rod

 

[alexinho]

Great to hear the West Stand singing Mark's name. I hope he takes a lot of confidence from that backing. He has played a blinder in that first half.

 

[Brentford77]

This may be the night that ignites his season. You don’t get to be the Bundesliga #1 in successive seasons without some serious quality but for whatever reason it hasn’t really happened for him here so far. But tonight. Wow.

9 saves for Flekken in the first half.

Nothing he could do about the goal.

Excellent stuff.

 

[A Real Mysteron]

I can hear Phil Holder on the civic centre steps.

Where are the doubters now?

 

[Thomas Bathurst]

Hats off to him. I'd written him off personally, but he has been unreal in that first half. Brilliant news for the rest of the season if he can keep this up.

 

[stevil]

Aaaargh

 

[JosephBFC]

One of the best ever GK performances for BFC. Will do his confidence wonders

 

[RJF21]

I always thought he was quality

 

[aawharris]

Absolutely superb today.
Hopefully that is the start of our defence getting its act together and shutting teams down again.
It takes all 5/6 of them.

 

[Mark H]

One of the best ever GK performances for BFC. Will do his confidence wonders

He broke the record for the most saves in a the first half of a PL game.

 

[zuko]

Looked a completely different player in terms of agility and responsiveness ?

 

[Isleworth_Bee]

Quality performance

Is this s**t needed on here?

 

[brentfordfc4ever]

Well, that's the real Mark Flekken right there.

 

[cm_851]

Excellent tonight, some top saves, good on corners and decent distribution. Great to hear the crowd sing his name and he must take confidence from this. We’ve got a big one Saturday and with a confident keeper between the sticks it’ll make all the difference.

 

[Paul_T]

Outstanding tonight, man of the match for me.

 

[NorthamptonBee]

Some for the cameras, some easy and some were bloody brilliant, didn’t deserve 3 against him tonight, surely this is the start of him believing he belongs.

 

[Amcclint]

His save from walker is worth seeing on replay - it’s staggering!

 

[Col T]

Exceptional tonight...

 

[BaildonBee]

Fantastic performance. So pleased for him.

 

[condorman]

Fair play to him. Did brilliantly tonight

 

[LostBee]

He was superb.

A big FU to the numpties.

 

[HMDBFC]

Well played Mark Flekken, great performance, where have you been?

 

[BigMarv]

Is this s**t needed on here?

You mean stats about a player who the thread is about that was broadcast on the countries biggest sports tv station and referenced in the post above? No, can’t see the relevance…

 

[cliffbee]

Flekken was superb. His critics will doubtless say it was all luck. Not bad for a statue.

 

[Gazza Bee]

Quite sensational tonight and hopefully the start of a run of performances. I'll be interested to see if his critics man up and give him some praise

 

[Artixbee]

Champagne moment to see him play so well tonight

 

[Indian Bee]

As good as first half performance I have seen ever from a Brentford keeper in the first half ever bearing in mind the opposition, that save from Haaland was exceptional. Well done.

 

[Holysmit]

Fantastic performance tonight. Has taken criticism some of it deserved. Some of it not.

However, can we please stop the when will he have a good game, make a save, dive etc.

As he was fantastic tonight and long may it continue!

 

[cd1994]

brilliant performance especially 1st half

 

[Lionel Bart-At]

That is one ballsy performance. Well done, Mark, you were magnificent.

 

[big neil]

Finally showed what he can do, as if he’d been told to fling himself about instead of being flat footed.
Great performance.

 

[The Corner Flag]

Lovely hearing the West Stand support Mark, what a performance. Hope he can kick on from here.

 

[Mr Cynical]

Certainly MOTM. Outstanding first half. Could have been 6 or 7 without him.

 

[mobbeez]

Like many,so pleased to hear his name sung. Earned it. Not All doubters were vindictive, and hope for a few more performances approaching this standard.

Hope the uber haters learn a bit of balance

 

[petsknee]

Stunning game from Mark today. Insane saves, commanded the box, amazing distribution, came for the ball. That was the real Flekken. I'm still buzzing from his performance tonight.

 

[Lionel Bart-At]

Never used them. My kids swear by them, though.

 

[To Bee Someone]

Great first half performance..could do nothing for that 1st goal and very unfortunate with the 2nd. The first time I have not had the jitters when he's played from the back.
I hope he takes a lot from that and from the support. Things we like to see

Are you not concerned that he “risked injury” making some of those saves?

 

[taxi driver]

Well played sir ????????

 

[Beelieve!]

Should sort out his Xg… lol

 

[Cham]

Excellent performance. Did great with his 1on 1 with Haaland.

 

[Lionel Bart-At]

Excellent performance. Did great with his 1on 1 with Haaland.

The cheer was almost like for a goal scored! Quite rightly!

 

[hatfieldbee]

NLB got it right.

Now, why is HerefordB so quiet tonight?

Tremendous show from Mark this evening!

 

[Twickenhamben]

Flekken excellent tonight…. But before we start piling into those who have been critical of him this season…… you can (a) think he had a good game tonight, (b) believe that he’s not delivered this season and been pretty average and (c) want him to do well moving forward….. they are not all mutually exclusive.
