Reinstated Town will face Ryman League Premier Division Lowestoft Town in the semi-finals of the Suffolk Premier Cup on a date yet to be set. The Blues were readmitted to the competition after their quarter-final opponents Felixstowe and Walton were controversially kicked out of the competition for fielding an ineligible player during their 2-1 victory last month.

Town, who field a reserves side in the Premier Cup, were the first name out of the hat but have generally played all their games away from home in the competition. Leiston face Bury Town in the other semi-final tie.

The Blues beat Walsham-le-Willows 5-1 away in the first round.

Fatcatevans added 22:10 - Feb 7 And if we win it, it will be meaningless. we were beaten fair and square. Only an FA assisted admin error sees us reappear. It's sad that we haven't got the balls to decline being reinstated

Bluetone added 23:00 - Feb 7 The sporting and right thing to do would be for Town to step aside and allow Felixstowe and Walton to go through. It would be much better for Town's image than to go on and possibly win the cup by default.

welshwatcher added 10:21 - Feb 8 Totally agree with you Bluetone, but I think if the Town did that, they would be fined by SFA and Lowestoft would get a bye into the final!
