Whittlesey thrashed Cambs League side Over Sports 4-0 in the Cambs Invitation Cup Final at Histon FC on Tuesday (May 8) thanks to goals from Matt Heron (2), Scott Carter and Daniel Redhead.

And next up is a much tougher assigment against Peterborough League Premnier Division champions Moulton Harrox in the Peterborough Football Sports Development Fund Senior Cup Final (PFSDF), a competition formerly known as the PFA Cup with a final at Peterborough United FC.

The location might not be as glamorous, but a competitive clash is expected. Whittlesey finished the Premier Division season strongly to claim fifth place.

Before then the PFSDF Challenge Cup Final between Eye United and Uppingham kicks off at Candy Street (1pm).

Uppingham were runners-up in Peterborough League Division One so will start favourites to beat Eye who finished fifth 16 points behind their opponents. But Eye beat Division One champions Parson Drove in the semi-finals so must be respected.

It’s also a big day (May 12) for Peterborough Sunday Morning League side West Raven who chase the final part of a cup treble when tackling Northampton Queens Park in the Northants Sunday Final at Northampton Town FC.
