HISTON’S stunning victory over Leeds did not bring them the FA Cup third-round rewards they were hoping for.

The Blue Square Premier promotion chasers were 1-0 winners over League One Leeds United in the second round but were visibly disappointed to be handed a home tie with Swansea as they watched the live draw.

Fellow non-leaguers Blyth Spartans will host Premier League side Blackburn if they win their replay against Bournemouth.

FA Cup holders Portsmouth were drawn at home to Bristol City, while Liverpool will travel to Preston, Manchester United face a trip to Southampton, Chelsea host Southend and Arsenal entertain Plymouth.

Sunderland face Bolton – who won 4-1 on Wearside on Saturday, while Newcastle go to Hull. Hartlepool’s third round tie will be against Stoke City at Victoria Park.

City boss Tony Pulis said: “It's not the one you would take by choice because there's no doubt Hartlepool will fancy making a name for themselves.

“We'll have to be on our game from the off, otherwise it will be a very long afternoon up there. We know it will be cold and unfriendly, I'd expect nothing less in the third round of the Cup, but we'll have to make sure we're ready for it.

“I've got the utmost respect for their manager Danny Wilson and you know he'll put out a team that will be champing at the bit to get at us.’’ Histon’s victory at a wet and wild Glassworld Stadium came courtesy of Matthew Langston, who headed in Gareth Gwillim’s cross in the 39th minute.

Histon dominated the first half and could have gone into the break further ahead, but they had to withstand a barrage of pressure in the second half.

Lubomir Michalik twice came within a whisker of equalising for Leeds, first seeing his shot cannon back off a post then a fierce drive headed off the line by Jack Midson late on.

Among the other stand-out ties in the third round, Championship pace-setters Birmingham and Wolves will face each other at St Andrews.

The local rivals played out an exciting 1-1 draw at Molineux on Saturday.

Blue Square Premier team Barrow were rewarded for their 2-1 victory over Brentford on Friday with a trip to Middlesbrough, while there could be an all non-league tie with Notts County or Kettering hosting Eastwood Town.

Northern Premier League side Eastwood caused the big shock with a 2-0 win over League Two leaders Wycombe while County and Kettering drew 1-1 today.

Brett Solkhon gave the nonleague outfit the lead after 18 minutes but Sean Canham equalised 11 minutes before half-time. Droylsden, who beat Darlington in the last round, will travel to Ipswich if they win their tie against Chesterfield, which was abandoned yesterday because of fog with the Blue Square North side 1-0 up.

Blyth will replay against Bournemouth a week today.

The teams drew 0-0 on Saturday and boss Harry Dunn said: “Every one of my players was fantastic.

“When they put the pressure on, we blocked shots, we headed them and kicked them out and you couldn't have asked for any more from the players.

“They put us under an awful lot of pressure but the lads stood up tremendously well. It's days like this you live for in football.”
