Exeter face Hereford this weekend for the third time in as many weeks when the conference high-flyers visit St James' Park.

But the Grecians will be without goalkeeper James Bittner, who was sent off in both of the last two games against the fellow former league team.

17-year-old rookie keeper Martin Rice is ready to take his place though, and has a new pair of lucky gloves for the occasion. They are sponsored by a local firm.

The match, an FA Trophy clash, will be covered with a full match report in this Sunday's Devon Independent.
