Player-Manager Paul Gross played the entire 90 minutes as an emergency striker and looped in the winner as the 8th placed SCEFL side pulled off a shock to knock out 9th placed Ryman Premier League Wingate & Finchley. The Millers will now travel to Ryman League Div 1 South side Tooting & Mitcham United after reaching the Semi-Finals for the second successive season. Former Bolton Wanderers striker, Thomas Youngs, 21 scored his first goal for the Millers to give the hosts the lead against the run of play. But Wingate & Finchley deservedly equalised just before the break through Jack Read's strike, before Gross's third goal of the season won it for the Millers.

Stephen McCartney reports from Middle Park Avenue
MATCHWINNER Paul Gross says he will be delighted if he can guide his Cray Valley side to the London Senior Cup Final in his first season in charge of the club.
