THERE were mixed fortunes for Suffolk's two non-league sides in the first round of the FA Cup.
Bury Town's dream is over after a 4-2 defeat at Alfreton Town but Leiston remain in the hat after drawing 0-0 at home to Fleetwood Town.
Leiston now face a replay in Lancashire on November 18 in their bid to make the second round of the competition. They are the FA Cup's lowest-ranked side.
Bury led 2-1 at half-time but a second-half comeback by the Derbyside side saw them through to the next round.
Both Suffolk sides had defied expectations to go so far in the cup and have benefited from thousands of pounds in prize money.
