Ollie Leslie and Joe Marsh have spoken of their determined to restore former glories after being appointed joint-managers at Maccabi London Lions A.

Leslie and Marsh were part of the Harmen management team who finished fifth in the MGBSFL Premier Division.

"The opportunity was too big to turn down," said Leslie, a former Lions player. "We aim to take Jewish football’s biggest club back to the summit of Sunday football.

"With the Harmen core and a large pool of players now at our disposal, the next couple of years will be very exciting at Rowley Lane."

Leslie and Marsh have already identified several players – some of whom have previously played at Lions or under their management in a bid to challenge a challenge for silverware.

Lions chairman Andy Landesberg said: “After being approached by Sam Castle and his team it was an obvious fit with us at MLL.

"So many players we hope to sign will have at some stage been at Lions before, so it feels good to have them return to the fold.

"This move enables us to create a stronger foundation for Lions and we hope adds strength to the future of the Maccabi GB Southern Football League."
