DANNY CARO'S QUOTE OF THE WEEK
DAN BERESFORD (AC Mill Hill) - "I just wonder why in Division Two, not for the first time this season, we have played against a Premier side, as FC Team dropped into Division Two from the Premier this season, so I'm thinking about the option of signing Joe Jacobson, Eyal Berkovic and Ronnie Rosenthal for next season, and maybe Dean Furman"

MGBSFL PREMIER DIVISION
TEAM EDGE 11-GOAL THRILLER
FC TEAM A 6 HARMEN 5
SHIM BENSOOR was the hat-trick hero as FC Team A secured fifth place in the Premier Division following victory in an 11-goal thriller against fourth-placed Harmen.
Further strikes from David James Cohen, Jon Weisz and Jamie Cooper added the gloss for Ben Gilbey's boys.
Inspired by a treble from DANIEL GREEN, Harmen led 4-3 at half-time, with Ben Weinberg also on target, while Harry Fine registered his first-ever goal for the club.
Team head coach Ben Gilbey told JC Sport: "I am very happy with the win which cements our position in fifth, which is a really good achievement for FC Team."
DC Prediction: Team 2 Harmen 1

FEHLER HELPS HENDON MAKE THEIR POINT
NORTH WEST NEASDEN 2 HENDON UNITED SPORTS CLUB A 2
Strikes from Dan Orgel and Adam Arnold earned Neasden another precious point in their battle to avoid the drop against Hendon.
Two goals from Dovi Fehler ensured a point for Hendon as they warmed up for next week's Peter Morrison Trophy final with a draw against Neasden who require a point in their final game against FC Team to stay up.
NWN manager Stirling Kay told JC Sport: "We played very well over all, but lacked that finishing touch, so we go into next week against FC Team knowing it's in our own hands."
Hendon boss David Garbacz told JC Sport: "We wish Neasden well in their final game next week - they deserve to stay up."
DC Prediction: Neasden 2 Hendon 1

AC MILL HILL 1 OAKWOOD B 4
Oakwood B turned on the style as they handed promoted AC Mill Hill a 4-1 thrashing in their final game, with Bradley Wine (2), Dan Ash and Guy Helman all registering.

Oaks manager Jason Stein told JC Sport: "Fifth spot is about par for us this season and we want to do better next year. "
Mill Hill boss Dan Beresford told JC Sport: "I thought we gave as good as we could against an Oakwood side with several first team players from the Premier Division.
