Tonight Ilkeston meet Quorn in the League Cup. Our opponents beat us 2-0 ten days ago in our last league match at the Farley Way Stadium so we will be looking for instant revenge. When the two teams met at the NMG in October, Elliott Reeves scored a last minute winner for Ilkeston. So it looks like being a really close contest and tonight's winners will be only one win away from the final. It should be a cracking game so come and watch if you can. If you can't make it you can follow the match progress here. Kickoff is 7 45pm Team news around 7pm.
One team is already through to the semifinals. Romulus beat Worcester 7-6 on penalties last night after the game ended 1-1.

Long Eaton 0 NFK Burbage 2 Thats a surprise

So the four teams to win through to the semi finals are; Ilkeston , Coventry Sphinx, Romulus and NKF Burbage.
Well done to Romulus and Burbage on eliminating Worcester and Long Eaton, two of the better teams.
After our comfortable quarter final victory against Quorn we must now fancy our chances of reaching the final which is usually played at Walsall.
Coventry Sphinx v Ilkeston would make a great final.
The semi final draw will be announced shortly.
