The Vitality Women’s FA Cup First Round
Hashtag United 17-0 Southend United CSC
Southend United’s FA Cup adventure was emphatically concluded at Park Lane. Nevertheless, Blues Head Coach, April Smith hoped the run had raised the profile of the club.
“We are just trying to let people know that we are here, we are going to compete,” she told Yellow Sport.
“Hopefully, people can a spare couple of hours on a Sunday and support us, helping us push for a one-club mentality.
“I’d like to think that off the back of this, we can crack on, attract players and supporters to the football club and push up through the leagues just like Hashtag United has.”
Premier Division
Bowers & Pitsea Development 2-0 Rayleigh Town

Frontiers 3-1 Beacon Hill Rovers
Frontiers found themselves two goals to the good inside the opening quarter of an hour through Bilge Taspinar and Nicole Farmer. However, Jo Smeaton reduced the arrears before the interval.

Division One
Corringham Cosmos 1-1 Blackmore
After a disappointing result last week, Blackmore Ladies took on the league leaders’ Corringham.
Corringham snatched an early lead. However, Blackmore proved to be spirited opposition and earned a share of the spoils thanks to a Meridith Bonner goal.
Bonner passed up another opportunity for Blackmore, while Lucy Benson hit an upright as the visitors continued to press.
Grays Athletic 9-1 Stones
Stanway Rovers 9-1 Chelmsford City Reserves
Remembrance Day saw Chelmsford City Reserves travel to Stanway Rovers.
After Stanway took the lead City came close to equalising when a chance fell to Barnard from a Calvert cross.
Both sides continued to create with City’s chances falling to Calvert, Johnson, Linsley and Flynn.
City did get on the score sheet through Calvert, but it proved to be little more than a consolation as the home side ran out 9-1 winners.
Tigers 0-1 Hutton Reserves
Division Two
Aveley 2-2 Great Bradfords
FC Clacton 7-3 Corinthians
