What a win for Cockfosters last night in their London FA Senior Cup First Round tie at Southern League Premier Division South Harrow Borough, see a match report and team sheet. Cockfosters will now host Barking or AFC Croydon Athletic in the Second Round which should attract a good crowd to Chalk Lane, the winners of that tie will host Cray Valley (PM) or Welling United or Phoenix Sports or Charlton Athletic in the Third Round, in other words Charlton Athletic:

Second Round
18) Cockfosters v Barking (Tuesday 21 February)

Confirmation of Tuesday evening's Second Round tie at Chalk Lane:

[Rhodes]

Lets get ready to rumble, the winners this evening will host Welling United or Charlton Athletic in the Quarter Finals of the competition who are also struggling to complete their Second Round tie, see the post below from another Forum:

Welling United and Charlton Athletic u-21 seem to be struggling to come up with a date for their postponed Second Round fixture, which had been due on 19 December. Welling have very few midweeks without a League game and Charlton, being Under-21s, play their games midweek. I've not seen anything from either Club as to what the solution is.

A disappointing evening at Chalk Lane, see some match photographs courtesy of photographer Terry Gilbert:
