Whitby ended an eight-match winless run after thumping ten-man Hebburn 6-2.

The Blues signed midfielder Adam Gell (pictured) for a fourth spell at the club and it was he who levelled seconds after Whitby had fallen behind inside 14 minutes.

The Tyneside club retook the lead, but then had a man sent off for an elbow on Seasiders skipper Jas Sukar.

Whitby made their one-man advantage count with ex-Scarborough striker Jake Charles turning home in the final minute of the first half.

It was Charles who slammed home Town's third, early in the second half.

On-loan Hartlepool United youngster Campbell Darcy made it four, with Stephen Walker and Joe Wheatley netting late on for a 6-2 victory.

Here's all the Whitby goals, with commentary from Paul Connolly and Liam Ryder on This Is The Coast Extra:
