Former winners Faithfold B will be looking to give outgoing player-manager David Garson the perfect send-off in Sunday's Barry Goldstein Trophy final.
April 25, 2018 14:45DAVID GARSON - (Player-manager and goalkeeper) - 44 going on 24, the man whose claim to fame is that he has never lost in the Barry Goldstein. David is the ultimate professional who has held Faithfold together through the good and bad times. This will be his final game before ‘retiring’ to the Masters and what better way to go out than with a cup final.
STUART HARING (Defender and captain) - a leader on the pitch and in the classroom. The cleverest member of the team, and probably the fittest. Can play anywhere across the back and is often found in the opponents’ box having tried to take it round all of the opposition.
NICK STERN (Centre-back) – former manager of L’Equipe who has found continued success now in green and white. Played 15 years in Maccabi football throughout all divisions and is looking to achieve back to back trophy filled years.
TONY PLASKOW (Centre-back) - a real legend of Faithfold. There is no doubt you will hear him on the sidelines or see him as the sun reflects off his head. First to every tackle and hasn’t lost a header in 20 years
JOSH BARNETT (Centre-back/midfielder) - another Faithfold legend, not played enough this year but when he does the opposition certainly know it
ARON LUFTIG (Full-back) - filling in for the final
JOSH LEWIS (Winger/Full back) - best friends with his water bottle that remains close to him at all times. One of the best crossers with his left foot Jewish football has seen.
NAFTALI DOVE (Winger/full-back) - a real asset to the squad. Able to fill in multiple positions and always gives everything for the shirt
BEN KFIR (Defender) - the man who controls the money, still unable to take a short throw in but willing to give everything to every tackle and header
JOSH MARTIN (Midfielder/full-back) - a real workhorse in the midfield who pops up with crucial goals. A box to box midfielder who never stops running
MARK SINGER (Centre midfielder) – ex-captain of L’Equipe whose one job is to protect the back four. Think Kante mixed with Vieira and you can picture Mark Singer.
YOSS BROWNSON (Midfield/striker) – hat-trick hero from the semi-final. Able to glide past players with ease and a finish that matches the best players in any leagues.
JON KAY (Striker) - Loves a flick on
DAVID PRAGER (Forward/centre back) - A Legend on and off the pitch. What Prager lacks in fitness he makes up for in heading ability. Prepared to put his svelt body on the line to win a game at any costs
ZALMY COHEN (Striker) - real livewire up front. Moved between the As and Bs all year and is a real asset when leading the line
GAV LEWIS (Striker/winger) - another one from the young Faithfold group. So quick with the ball at his feet and an end product to match
SAM GARSON (Striker/winger) - from the long line of Garsons. A real difference maker on the pitch
JJ MARRACHE (Striker/winger) - trouble follows JJ but will always play with a smile on his face, Gibraltar’s finest and still hoping for an international call-up
DAN YOSSMAN (Striker/winger) - a real asset to Faithfold. Leads the line with great skill and known to pop up with a crucial goal.
