Hmmm....let's hope we are unable to fulfill this fixture (it's the same date as the FA Cup 1st Round Proper!)

Usually held the week before.

Win this one and our chances of drawing either Colchester or Southend (assuming they are still in it)are a very good 15/2

 

 

[Cherry Blue]

Lets hope we field a strong team then !

I think it will depend on how our other cup campaigns are going.

 

we may well be back to the the conundrum situation

 

 

[Cherry Blue]

Yes we will have to wait and see

 

Thurrock have had a good record in the competition in recent years although that was under the Mcbride years.

 

Normally the final is at Roots Hall, could be a good night out !

The Essex senior cup ...is one competition, I believe we should enter a strong team and have the belief to win through to the final .back in the past we had good runs ending in losing the finals at dagenhams ground....It also means we as a club have bragging rights as to who is the BEST TEAM In ESSEX......

[The Town Crier]

 

 

Hornchurch won it last year.

 

As finisterre has mentioned, it has to be played week commencing the FA Cup 1st round Saturday, which, if we are able to overcome Folkstone, will effect team selection I'm sure.
