SOUTHAMPTON : Southern Junior Floodlit Cup (First Round)
Upton Park
10-1 (Redknapp 3, Sissons 3, Britt 2,Bennett, Dryden)
30th September 1963
Our under-18 Colts' Team resumed the cup trail when they met Southampton Colts in the First Round of the Southern Junior Floodlit Cup at Upton Park, and their performance before an attendance of 3,300 showed that once again they must be reckoned among the favourites in this season's competitions. Nine of the 1962-63 regular side are available, and in this particular game the places of Dennis Burnett and John Charles (both ineligible on the age-limit) were taken by George Andrew (our recent professional signing) and Terry Needham.
Both newcomers played a useful part in our 10—1 victory, but the " star " of the evening proved to be Harry Redknapp, who not only scored a personal hat-trick in the first half (14, 38, 39 mins.). but also bedevilled the Saints' defence time and time again after the interval.
It was unfortunate for the Hampshire club that one of their players was injured early on (although he was able to return), but this made virtually no difference in the long run as in the second half alone we hit the woodwork four times. The visitors" 'keeper—Peter Higgins—gave a very courageous display (sustaining some hard knocks in the process! but could do nothing to prevent the Hammers from scoring at more or less regular intervals. Johnny Sissons also got a hat-trick (39. 46, 50 mins.) and the other goals came from Martin Britt (28, 86 mirs.), Peter Bennett (63 mins.) and John Dryden (88 mins.).

A 2—1 victory over Charlton Athletic in the First Round of the London Challenge Cup at Upton Park qualified us to visit Tottenham on Monday next (October 21st) in the Second Round.
Against the Athletic we fielded a team which has largely represented us in recent Football Combination games. A first-half injury caused Geoff Hurst to leave the field, and we were " ten men " from thence until the final whistle. Brian Dear had alreadv put us two up with a brace of goals, but for the remainder of the time it was a very uphill fight for the Hammers. Nevertheless there was a fair amount of excitement for the 4.,200 spectators on -what proved to be a good evening for watching football.

The line-ups for the Second Round Tie of the London Challenge Cup at White Hart Lane were Xl's of reserve strength, although the majority of players in both teams have had League experience. Perhaps it was a little more of this on the Spurs' side (plus ground advantage) which tipped the scales. although the Hammers were by no means disgraced in a game which ended 3—2 in the North Londoners' favour. Despite the poor weather there was a lot of good football, and our team emerged with credit against the club which leads the Football Combination table.
Brian Dear collected a through ball to put us ahead with a good effort, and a brilliant display by Lawrie Leslie kept the home side at bay until they equalised before half-time. But the Spurs were not to be denied, and after the interval they got two more before Tony Scott banged the ball home in a goalmouth melee that helped to a rousing finish.
ASHFORD TOWN : Grand Floodlit Game
Essella Park
7-1
6th November 1963
On Wednesday 6th November we sent a team of First XI strength to open the new floodlights installed by Ashford Town at their Essella Park Ground ; Ashford are in the Southern League and present holders of the Kent Senior Cup. There was an attendance of about 2,500 to see us win by 7—1.
QUEENS PARK RANGERS : Sothern JUnior Floodlit Cup (Second Round)
Upton Park
5-0 (Britt, Sissons 4)
2nd December 1963
Our Colts have scored 15 goals in their two Southern Junior Floodlit Cup matches this season, as after notching a 10—1 win over Southampton Colts in the First Round they netted a " nap hand " against Queens Park Rangers Colts here on December 2nd. We fielded our full Colts XI for this game: Mackleworth, Needham, Kitchener, Dawkins, Andrew, Howe. Redknapp, Bennett, Britt, Sissons, Dryden.
It took us 25 minutes to pass the final line of the Rangers' defence and score our first goal (through Martin Britt), as prior to that the first-rate work of Peter Springett (Rangers' First XI goalkeeper), some astute covering by his full-backs and near misses all contributed in keeping their charge intact. However, John Sissons added another three minutes later and we went in at the interval two goals up.
The West Londoners were rather worn down by the time the second half started, and it became largely a personal duel between Springett and our forwards. Nevertheless, the custodian could not prevent Sissons from adding three more tallies to his own account, all this trio being through well-placed shots from around the edge of the penalty-area.
There was a 3,500 attendance.
FULHAM : FA Youth Cup (Second Round)
Upton Park
3-0 (Bennett, Dryden, Redknapp)
18th December 1963
Our Colts met Fulham Colts at Upton Park, a 2,200 attendance saw our under-18's gain a 3—0 victory through goals by Peter Bennett, John Dryden and Harry Redknapp. It was a comfortable win, but the margin might have been greater had we taken more of the chances we made against a less-experienced side. The Fulham Colts' team are well-placed in the South East Counties League, but as we had nine full professionals in the line-up and all but two of the team have Combination experience the Cottagers were no real match for our lads.
