FC United have been informed today that all avenues of protest about the League Cup have been exhausted. Therefore, the League’s decision stands that Curzon Ashton will be reinstated after their loss to Witton Albion, who have been removed from the competition, because they fielded an ineligible player in the game against FC United.
Further information about the protest and appeals made by FC United are available to co-owners on the official forum and full details will be filed in the members’ documents area as soon as possible.
FC United would like to convey our best wishes to both Curzon Ashton and their semi final opponents Matlock Town and in particular we wish both sets of fans good luck and an enjoyable game tomorrow.
