The QF winners between Molesey and Badshot Lea, face the might of Met.Police in the semis.

SURREY SENIOR CUP DRAW (SF)

Following The Baggies spectacular win on Tuesday at Ryman League, Corinthian Casuals - the next hurdle is arguably a more difficult away trip, to fellow CCL Prem side Molesey FC. Mark Thomas's Lea face The Moles in the league, 7th March - having won 1-0 at Shawfield Stadium in November - however the cup visit to Molesey maybe sooner, due to pressure to complete the tie. The recently completed Casuals v Baggies game was delayed for several weeks, due to weather and other factors.

The winners of the outstanding QF face a daunting task, home to Jim Cooper's promotion chasing Ryman Premier League, Metropolitan Police in the semis. 'Met' currently occupy 6th slot, on 54 points - same as 7th placed Kingstonian - who fell to The Baggies, on the hallowed 'turf' of Shawfield Stadium in an earlier round.

Gaffer Mark Thomas's reaction to the draw was philosophical, " We've still got Molesey to play in the quarters - no point in thinking about Met Police. We have to earn that semi slot, have no doubt, that Molesey will be our toughest cup test yet. Despite us already knocking out Kingstonian and Corinthian Casuals."

The other semifinal features Ryman League 1S Merstham v CCL Prem Ashford Town, following today's draw on BBC Radio Surrey. With Met Police's Imber Court, a likely final venue it's going to be an interesting last four games in this season's Surrey Senior Cup!
