The Lincolnshire Senior County Cup is a football (soccer) competition for senior football clubs in Lincolnshire organised by the Lincolnshire FA.
The competition can be traced back to the formation of the Lincolnshire FA at a meeting held at the Queens Hotel in Lincoln on Saturday 17 September 1881[1] and sixteen teams entered the inaugural Lincolnshire Cup competition with Spilsby the first winners in 1881—82. Spilsby would go on to win the first three competitions and consequently they were allowed to retain the initial trophy.[2]
When the competition first started it was treated as seriously as the FA Cup and the need for a Lincoln team to be successful in the competition following the initial victories by Spilsby, who defeated three Lincoln based teams - Lincoln Rovers, Lincoln Lindum and Lincoln Albion - in the 1883–84 competition, that led to the formation of Lincoln City on 26 June 1884.[3]
The elevation of Grimsby Town and Lincoln City to the Football League in 1892 and Gainsborough Trinity in 1896 saw the importance of the competition decline over time and the format has undergone a number of changes over time as has the type of trophies offered by the Lincolnshire FA. In this entry attention is focused upon the most senior trophy offered by the Lincolnshire FA which currently has the official title of "The Lincolnshire Football Association Ltd Senior County Cup Competition"[4] and is competed annually by the four senior clubs of the county: Boston United, Grimsby Town, Lincoln City and Scunthorpe United. The current holders are Grimsby Town, who beat Lincoln City 1-1 (5-4 on Penalties) at Sincil Bank on 31 July 2012.

The First Competition, 1881-1934
The final was not played in the 1887-88 season after finalists Grimsby Town resigned from the Lincolnshire FA.[5]
The Second Competition, 1934-1949
The increasing dominance of the county's two Football League sides Grimsby Town and Lincoln City saw the inauguration of the `Lincolnshire Senior County Cup' which was played for between the two clubs. The trophy was, by now, a minor consideration for the two clubs. For example a crowd of just 2,334 gathered at Sincil Bank on 24 September 1934 to see Lincoln defeat Grimsby 5-0 compared to Lincoln's league average attendance of 5,227 for that season[6] The competition was not held in either of the 1938-39 or 1939-40 seasons as the two clubs met in matches for the Football League Jubilee Fund, Lincoln coming out victorious in the first and Grimsby in the second. The senior non-league sides continued to play for the `Lincolnshire County Senior Cup' (LCS) and this continued to attract strong interest for these sides with, for comparison, the 1934-35 final replay between Boston United and Grantham attracting an attendance of 5,500.[7] The `Lincolnshire County Junior Cup' continued for those clubs playing at a more junior non-league level.
The 1937/38 final between Grimsby Town and Lincoln City was played at Grimsby on 21 September 1937 at grimsby with Grimsby Town winninh 4-1. The 1948/49 final between Lincoln and Grimsby Town was played at Lincoln on 14 May 1949 at Lincoln, with Lincoln City winning 2-1 after extra time.[17] The Third Competition, 1949-1956The Lincolnshire Senior County Cup continued to be played as a straight final between the two Lincolnshire league teams, Grimsby Town and Lincoln City. Scunthorpe United's elevation to the Football League saw them eligible to participate in the competition from 1951-52 onwards. One team received a bye to the final with the other two teams meeting in a semi-final. From season 1949-50 onwards the Lincolnshire County Senior Cup split into two sections 'A' and 'B' and was restricted to clubs nominated to compete.[18]

In their first season in the competition they would defeat Grimsby Town in the semi-final before going on to lift the trophy with victory over Scunthorpe United in the final. Boston's demotion from the Southern Football League at the end of the 1960-61 season saw them replaced by Gainsborough Trinity for the 1961-62 competition.

The Senior 'A' Cup was only played for once in this timeframe, Gainsborough Trinity defeating Boston United 2-1 in a replay on 15 April 1964.

More Changes, (2003-2012)
From 2003-04 onwards, following Boston United's promotion to the Football league, the Lincolnshire Senior County Cup has been competed for by Boston United, Grimsby Town, Lincoln City and Scunthorpe United and organised as a knock-out competition. Teams in levels 5-8 of the English football league system compete for the Lincolnshire Senior Shield while those in levels 9-11 compete in the Lincolnshire County Senior Trophy. As the draw for the 2007-08 Senior Cup was made before Boston United's double relegation they remained in this competition where they were knocked out by eventual winners Scunthorpe United. The 2008-09 competition was reduced to just the three Football League sides with Grimsby Town defeating Lincoln City in a semi-final tie before losing to Scunthorpe United in the final. The 2009-10 saw just three Football League sides again with Scunthorpe United defeating Grimsby Town in the semi-final 3-0 before defeating Lincoln City on penalties 4-2 after a 1-1 draw. In 2010-11, Grimsby beat Lincoln 4-2 at Blundell Park before losing at Scunthorpe 4-3 on penalties after a 1-1 draw.

Extended Competition (2013–2015)
At the beginning of the 2013–14 campaign, the changed to being played by Lincolnshire's top five sides, Scunthorpe United, Grimsby Town, Lincoln City, Gainsborough Trinity and Boston United. Boston and Gainsborough would compete for a place in the semi-final while the other three sides would automatically be entered with the winner of that match. However the final despite always being a traditional pre-season event was now moved to October, with the semi-finals taking part in early August. The switch in date for the final meant that the sides began fielding a mixed team of youth and first team players as not to interrupt their domestic campaigns.
