After a two week break due to weather we took on Division 1 leaders Polytechnic in the semi-final of the Middx/Essex AFA cup.
This was always going to be a tough game and the absence of our two main strikers did not make it any easier.

The pace of the game found us adrift in the first half and having survived most of the first half conceded a goal just before the interval.
In the second half we came more into the game and had several near misses but were unable to get the equaliser not helped by only having one half fit sub.
A couple of comments to make our behaviour on the pitch is now good they had one man sent off we did not this would not have happened last season so progress there.
To go to a match like this with virtually no subs is ridiculous whatever fixture the reserves had at least two players should have been promoted for this important fixture that’s how football works we are a Club after all not 6 different teams.
The rest of the results were poor with the reserves losing there unbeaten record to West Wickham third team regrettably we did not take our defeat  well making the mistake of blaming the ref which never helps
The fours and sevens drew and the fifths lost.
​Back to the league for the ones this week this is an important game we need to not suffer an anti climax after our cup ventures.
