Gordon Brasted Memorial Trophy

Eton Manor 0 Bowers & Pitsea 3

Paul Carr was Manor's executioner in the Gordon Brasted Trophy for the second season running, as he scored twice to see his new club Bowers & Pitsea into the next round.

Essex Senior League - League Cup Group C

Eton Manor 1 Clapton 0

Eton Manor booked their place in the League Cup quarter finals after a nervy 1-0 victory over Clapton.
