London FA Senior Cup

[Rhodes]

Abbeynut - I've noticed that you have been straying onto the SSML Forum quite a bit of late and our paths have crossed on one or two others, didn't we meet at Hamilton Hall last year or am I mixing you up with Diz or MCP.

[Rhodes]

I have it on good authority that the London Senior Cup draw is out and that Hoddesdon Town meet Beckenham Town in the First Round with the winners meeting Mauritius Sports. Does anybody have the full draw to hand, I'm sure Football Man does.

[Rhodes]

The draw is now on the London FA Website, Cockfosters v Hanwell Town is an interesting looking First Round tie. There is surprisingly no sign of Kentish Town in the draw despite the Club being affiliated to the London FA:

[johnny bell]

the tie of the first round has to be south kilburn v clapton

Not!

[Rhodes]

I wonder what crowd they will get for that one, I see South Kilburn are playing at Vale Farm this season albeit on the side pitch next to the sports centre.

LONDON SENIOR CUP DRAW ANNOUNCED

BOROUGH could go right through to the semi-final of their County Cup without leaving Coles Park. They have been drawn at home in the first 4 rounds and there are no replays.

In the First Round (probable date Tuesday October 6th) they have been drawn at home to ERITH & BELVEDERE of the Bulmers Cider Kent League.

Victory over "The Deres" would then see them entertain the winner of the game between fello Spartan Leaguers KINGSBURY LONDON TIGERS and FISHER FC - the club just risen from the ashes of Fisher Athletic the former Blue Square South Club and also now playing at Step 5 in the Bulmers Cider Kent League

Further success would result in a visit from CRAY WANDERERS of the Rymans League Division One South in the Third Round.

Success in that would secure a quarter final game against the winners of the third round match between WELLING UNITED of the Blue Square South League or CROYDON ATHLETIC, another Rymans Division One South Club.

If they reached the semi-final, BOROUGH would be the away team.

The full draw is on the London FA website to which there is a link from our site (see left column)

I see from Haringey Borough's Website that they are being rather hopeful in thinking they can reach the semi final of the prestigious London Senior Cup, Erith & Belvedere will be no pushovers in the First Round.

A result from last night in the London FA Senior Cup First Round, is anybody attending a game in the prestigious competition this evening:

Tonight's London Senior Cup results, Haringey Borough now host Fisher, Hanwell Town entertain Croydon or Lewisham Borough who meet tomorrow and Brimsdown Rovers host Redbridge. Hoddesdon Town play Beckenham Town next Tuesday at Lowfield for the right to host Mauritius Sports:

4 4 Cockfosters v Hanwell Town (aet, Hanwell Town win 4-3 on pens)

3 1 Haringey Borough v Erith & Belvedere

From the Erith & Belvedere Forum, it appears Haringey Borough deserved their win:
