Sun Engraving 1 Bushey United 2                   St Mary's Cup Final                       1933/34

Sun Engraving lose in extra time - Player taken to hospital

Although having the fortune to win the toss for ground, Sun Engraving had little further luck in the final of the St Mary's Cup on Saturday.
Some 20 minutes after the start, Brown, their sharp-shooting centre forward, had to go off injured, and was unable to take any further part in the game.
He strained several muscles in his back, and was removed to hospital the same day for X-Ray examination.
Bushey took the lead in the first half through Noble, the Sun Engraving equalising a minute after the interval through Hindley, who converted a centre by Southam.
Sun Engraving fought pluckily, despite their handicap.
The ground was in a bad state in consequence of the storm, and in the circumstances the extra time decision created surprise.
Bushey scored two minutes from the end through Noble, the slippery ball beating Trevers after he had saved the shot.
On the play, Bushey were fortunate to succeed, and a draw would have been a more equitable result.

Sun Engraving.- J Trevers; Smith, Price; Green, Davies, Brooks; G Trevers, Hindley, Brown, Hunt, Southam.
