SURREY SENIOR CUP FINAL

SUTTON UNITED - 2 [Golley 36. Thomas 68]
Played @ Gander Green Lane, Sutton.
This was the first time the borough’s 2 teams had contested the Surrey Cup Final and it completed a fairly good season for both sides. The Robins, under the wily Billy Smith had just finished one of their best ever campaigns having finished well in the top 5 and were fielding arguably the strongest side assembled in their history. Meanwhile the U’s had come within 90 minutes of an FA Trophy Final appearance at Wembley having lost 6-3 on aggregate to the all conquering Wycombe. This was made all the more disappointing by the fact they’d won 3-2 at the Conference table toppers before crashing 4-0 at GGL.
