FA Cup Preliminary Round

Harlow Town 5 v 1 Southend Manor

ESSEX Senior League Manor’s hopes of an FA Cup upset at Ryman North Harlow were dashed, with Junior Dadson giving the home side the lead after just four minutes.

Ryan Melaugh extended the lead just before half time but Manor got a goal back through Reis Meecham early in the second half.

A second from Dadson restored the two goal advantage and the tie was settled 15 minutes from time when Fabion Simms scored and Harry Prince made it five when he got the final touch to a low cross.
