DEVON COUNTY CUPS SATURDAY SENIOR & INTERMEDIATE HOPES

SATURDAY NOVEMBER 14

13 of the Devon Senior cup ties taking place this Saturday involve Devon & Exeter League teams so the odds that the cups oldest trophy in Devon could be heading back this way are stacked in our favour. Six D & E teams are certain to make it through but the highlight is on Kentisbeare who travel to last seasons beaten finalists Bovey Tracey Res. Our current top senior team Clyst Valley make the trip to Lifton who are bottom of the of the St Piran League One East division and Clyst will be hugely disappointed not to make the last 16.
Upottery Res who shocked Dawlish United in the second round are at Okehampton Argyle Res who to be fair are not having the best of seasons, but a chance for them to lift spirits.

The Devon Intermediate cup holders Exmouth Albion have stepped up to Senior status so their second team carry the banner this weekend when they are at Buckland Athletic Res. The South Devon league side who began their amazing rise to fame began life in the D & E League 40 years ago are unbeaten this season so a big ask for the Albion Reserves.
Beaten finalists Millwey Rise have also moved up into senior status and their second eleven forfeited in the last round to Chagford and the moormen drawn at home to the ponies from Bampton will now hope to gallop into the fourth round.
Whatever the outcomes six D & E sides will be in the hat for the 4th round draw next week.
