Histon manager Steve Fallon has expressed his delight at landing a home draw in the 3rd round of the FA Cup despite the disappointment of his players.

The non league outfit turned giant killers this afternoon as Leeds United became the latest scalp to be claimed by the Cambridgeshire side under the full glare of ITV sports cameras. Swansea may not have been the premiership club that most Stutes fans were hoping for but Fallon believes a tie against Swansea City two divisions above them in the league pyramid offers the Bridge Street side a real opportunity to progress as he told ITV Sport, he said โ€œIts a good draw for us and we obviously wanted to be at home Swansea are a big side within their own rights so its a good little tie for us and a chance to get into the fourth round
