There was a clash of the top-two in Division One, while the Lions moved to top of the Division Two table, writes Jeremy Silverstone.
DIVISION ONE:
TABLE
FIXTURES & RESULTS
North London Raiders edged closer to a first Masters League title with a 3-3 draw in their encounter with second-place Southgate Harmen.
Tony Plaskow, Wayne Davidson and an own goal scored for the Raiders, whilst Paul Stein, a Lloyd Becker penalty and a reciprocal own goal, following Andy Hearn’s long throw, earned Harmen a share of the spoils.
Meanwhile, Brady A edged out Scrabble in an end-to-end battle which finished 4-3 to Brady, thanks to two goals from Daniel Sugarman – including one from the penalty spot – Paul Allen and Jonny Cohen. Jeremy King, Jeremy Kornhauser and Charlie Bernstein replied for Scrabble.
DIVISION TWO:
TABLE
FIXTURES & RESULTS
Goals from Marc Morris, Mark Jacob and Darren Young gave Lions a 3-0 win over EDRS to go top of the league, albeit having played two games more than Glenthorne A.
At the lower end of the table, a late Vince Goodman strike was enough to give Hendon Harriers the points in their 1-0 win over Temple Fortune. St John’s Wood Tigers beat Marshside 3-1 courtesy of goals from Ashley Davidson, Paul Shamplina and Perry Somers.
Fara Moghim scored Marshside’s reply.

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.
