Sunday Masters review – week 4
Chigwell opened up a three-point gap at the top of the Division One table, while in Division Two, London Lions continued their march to another title with a 6-0 win over Temple Fortune, writes Jeremy Silverstone…
DIVISION ONE:
RESULTS & FIXTURES
TABLE
Despite the heroics of stand-in goalkeeper David Garson, Faithfold went down 6-2 to a rampant Brady A. Scott Warren netted twice – once from the spot – with Paul Shamplina, Kevin Lotzof, Mark Wagman and Ashley Davidson also all on target as Brady claimed their first win of the campaign. Stefan Simons scored both Faithfold’s goals.
North London Raiders suffered a rare defeat, falling 4-2 to Chigwell. Despite Stefan Benfredj scoring on his debut for Raiders, and Tony Plaskow hitting one in from a free-kick, two goals from Adam Stolerman, including one from the penalty spot, along with strikes from Danny Sugarman and Steve Summer earned Chigwell a win that opens up a three-point gap at the top for them.
HMH edged out Waldaf Town 3-2 thanks to a brace from James Temple and an own goal. Alex Bourne and Lloyd Becker replied for Waldaf.
DIVISION TWO:
RESULTS & FIXTURES
TABLE
Lions continued their seemingly inexorable march towards another title with a 6-0 demolition of Temple Fortune. Marc Morris scored a ‘perfect’ hat-trick – one with his left foot, one with his right and one with his head, with Simon Black, Simon Davidson and Arthur Duke also finding the back of the net.
Gary Adams was also among the hat-tricks, as his treble – plus a penalty from Greg Morris – led Glenthorne to a 4-0 win over Brady B.
But it took a solitary strike from the warhorse Steve Krieger to earn EDRS the narrowest of victories over Marshside, and leapfrog their rivals into second place.

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.
