Brady had beaten the Lions earlier in the season, and another victory for Dan Collins’s side would have virtually sealed the crown.
Goals from Jon Steinberg and Max Radford handed the Lions a crucial win as they joined Brady on 42 points. Both teams have one league game left to play.
Should both sides win the title will then be decided by a play-off.
