—————————————————-
GOALKEEPER
Will Martyn (Boca Jewniors) – Pulled off a string of fine saves to keep HMH at bay and make sure the MGBSFL side avoided being on the end of a cup upset
DEFENCE
Alex Bloch (NL Raiders A) – The model of consistency. Scored his first goals for the club, arguably the best full-back in the league and showing it week in week out now.
Michael Khalastchi (Camden Park) – Solid as a rock, nothing got past him. Comfortable on the ball and still immense after left looking like Terry Butcher following a clash of heads
Brad Fox (SPEC) – Had a very solid game at the heart of the SPEC defence, while he distributed the ball well too
Josh Barnet (Faithfold C) – Captain is back to his leadership best, and scored an excellent headed goal to boot
MIDFIELD:
Jacob Brunner (Athletic Bilbaum) – A strong, attacking performance crowned with a cheeky lobbed goal
Adam Arnold (Harmen) – Started the game in the middle before moving out wide. Quick feet, an eye for a pass and scored twice
Avi Mocton (Hendon United B) – Covering nearly every blade of grass, opposition couldn’t deal with his strength, and provided a cool finish to level the score
Dave Eden (Oakwood B) – Always looking for the ball and moves it on quickly and impressively. Covered loads of ground and did a great job in front of the defence
ATTACK:
Rob Hershkorn (Camden Park) – Having a terrific season and was the difference as two goals earned Camden a 2-0 win which took them to the top of the Premier Division table
Jeff Gotch (Catford & Bromley) – Player-manager led by example, netting a hat-trick to see his side into the next round, and help team claim first win of season

Engaging
Being a community platform means so much more than producing a newspaper and website. One of our proudest roles is media partnering with our invaluable charities to amplify the outstanding work they do to help us all.
Celebrating
There’s no shortage of oys in the world but Jewish News takes every opportunity to celebrate the joys too, through projects like Night of Heroes, 40 Under 40 and other compelling countdowns that make the community kvell with pride.
Pioneering
In the first collaboration between media outlets from different faiths, Jewish News worked with British Muslim TV and Church Times to produce a list of young activists leading the way on interfaith understanding.
Campaigning
Royal Mail issued a stamp honouring Holocaust hero Sir Nicholas Winton after a Jewish News campaign attracted more than 100,000 backers. Jewish Newsalso produces special editions of the paper highlighting pressing issues including mental health and Holocaust remembrance.
Easy access
In an age when news is readily accessible, Jewish News provides high-quality content free online and offline, removing any financial barriers to connecting people.
Voice of our community to wider society
The Jewish News team regularly appears on TV, radio and on the pages of the national press to comment on stories about the Jewish community. Easy access to the paper on the streets of London also means Jewish News provides an invaluable window into the community for the country at large.
We hope you agree all this is worth preserving.
