Exeter City roared into the First Round Proper of The FA Youth Cup after hitting a magnificent seven past Gloucester City without reply.

Dean Stamp stole the show with a well-taken hat-trick and set up a home tie with Bournemouth.

Exeter Club secretary Sally Cooke beamed: "It was a very good performance from the side. The whole team played really well and we are looking forward to playing Bournemouth."

Joining them in the next round will be Gravesend & Northfleet following their excellent 5-1 at Tonbridge Angels.

Kwesi Appiah got the visitors off to a flying start when he netted after just three minutes. Lee Maskell added a second from the spot just a minute before the break and Tommy Whitnell made it three on 47 minutes.

The home side were stung into action and Bobby Dixey hit back just minutes later, but their mini-revival was soon halted when Lee Maskell fired a second from the spot midway through the second half.

John Akinde rounded off the win with an 88th minute strike to set up a trip to either North Greenford United or Dunstable Town, who play on Wednesday night.

Elswhere, Farsley Celtic beat Silsden 3-1 and will now travel to Chester City in the First Round Proper.

Rushden & Diamonds and Woking both eased in to the next round with 3-2 wins over Barton Rovers and Worthing respectively.
