WINDSOR & Eton's participation in the FA Cup was ended after Southern Premier League high fliers Farnborough won 1-0 at Stag Meadow.

Boro's reward for beating the Royalists is a third qualifying round clash at Heybridge Swifts.

Slough Town have been handed a trip to Ryman Premier League outfit Tooting & Mitcham cup.

Despite it being away from home and against a side a level above it could have been worse for the Rebels after they overcame Concord Rangers in the last round as they could have got a Conference South team.

And that is exactly what Burnham have got if they can overcome Aveley on Wednesday evening. The Blues were held to a 1-1 draw but were very unlucky to conceded a late equaliser.

The winners of that clash will face either Hampton & Richmond Borough or Braintree Town with the sides having another go at each other following Saturday's goalless draw.
