![]() Sunday, 4th Jan 2009 15:40 Swansea City have drawn Portsmouth or Bristol City in the 4th round of the FA Cup. Swansea City have been drawn against Portsmouth or Bristol City in the fourth round of the FA Cup should the Liberty Stadium club get past Blue Square Premier outfit Histon on the 13th January. Yesterday's tie was postponed due to a frozen pitch which left both clubs engaged in a war of words about referee Phil Crossley's decision to call off the fixture with only hours left till kick off. It led Histon Chairman Gareth Baldwin to accuse Roberto Martinez and Swansea City officials of putting undue pressure upon Crossley to make his decision, the irate chairman said “The telling question for me is that would we kick off if the game was now? The answer is yes. I think the assistant manager of Swansea has perhaps applied a bit of pressure. I'm disappointed about that." Last seasons FA Cup winners were forced into a third round replay after been held to a goalless draw by Bristol City.
