Not well publicised, did not know this last round was due to take place and nothing on coming fixtures on OWS. In recent years final has been played at the Community Stadium, but perhaps a neutral venue be required by Essex FA if the U’s progress to the final. Hashtag, the home of former U’s player Greg Halford .

Yeah it always seems to go under the radar a little. Sam Cornish is also there and Joey Keith is assistant manager. Not sure if there are any other Col U connections.
Maldon & Tiptree confirmed their place in the BBC Essex Senior Cup Semi Final tonight but only just, beating Little Oakley 2-1 with the winner coming in the 98th minute.
Attendance 112
( Not sure if Jamie Cureton came on tonight but he was on the bench ).
We should show respect for The Essex Senior Cup with the intention of winning it every season!
It was once known as The Essex Professional Cup and was a great little tournament.
I visited New Written Street back in the 60's where Chelmsford City beat Colchester United in the final - 6-3!
The Clarets had a really strong side back then. The crowd that night was well over 6,000. I recall Tony Butcher as an outstanding player for Chelmsford City.
I also recall an away match at Romford, also in the sixties where Romford disposed of a strong Colchester United side 8-3! I think Ted Phillips scored the three for Colchester.
Having family in Romford l was often reminded of this.
I spent quite a bit of time in the area back then and remember a classic FA Cup tie at a packed Brooklands where Gillingham emerged as winners by a single goal.
My reason for hanging out there was partly due to a fab music venue - The King's Head. Saw Black Sabbath virtually take the roof off the building....also Sam Apple Pie, Blodwyn Pig, Family and quite a few more.
My second home was in Carlton Road, Gidea Park.
We used to see Graham Gooch jogging past sometimes Dedicated to the cause!
He deserved all the success that came his way!

Some really good bands there Sparkfilms. Wonderful period in our music history. And even now they're still good. ( I get to see Wishbone Ash annually, they sell out every venue and remain a sensation).
Rock on!

Actually following tonight's match in the bath reading the live feed from The Gazette.
Some aspects of the modern world l certainly approve of.
There is a dog called 'Hashtag' who lives nearby.
Did a xxxx in my garden last week. Easier to dispose of that myself as the lady owner doesn't seem too keen. Especially with her being a beautician ( of sorts ).

Late goal for Hashtag to make it a nervy added time, but the U's held on 3-2 to make it to the final! Bravo lads (and seniors)!
A run out for several players on the verge of the first team. Two goals conceded at both ends of the game could have made it embarrassing, but the U’s were firmly in control between both goals . Run out for most hoping to get a first team call if they could get past the loanees.

A fairly enjoyable game - we struggled early on and in final 10-15 minutes once experienced players taken off but during middle of match we looked reasonably comfortable.
Had the misfortune of having the children and their drum sit a few rows behind me in W2. I won't make that mistake again.
Marshall Miranda was probably my MOTM

I'm in agreement with that. Didn't think the fringe players did a lot to enhance their case for a start in the first team and Hornby punching it into his own goal after a minute didn't help either.
We had a similar misfortune as we were sitting right next to them, not a pleasant experience. We moved into W3 at half time and had a much more enjoyable second half.
I also thought Marshall Miranda was the best player on the pitch.
Full credit to the excellent film by the young Hashtag fan, hope he goes to enjoy his football in the future .
Just two gripes, stadium announcers thinks we were all deaf and probably all are after enduring the drum ! Guy moved and sat next to me before the start after realising his seat was also next to the beating drum . On the football front - Agree with the other contributors Marley was MOTM, got stuck in when required, Jay was industrious, while Ihionvein needs to now up his mental approach, ( another needless booking ) .
