Head2Head & Team News - Grimsby Town
Last updated : 12 April 2008 By Deano
Of course, the Mariners play their home games in Cleggy and a few hundred Millers are set to make the trip over in what may be the club's last ever away game.
Today sees an extra lifeline for the Millers, as the administrator is set to extend the deadline for bids to buy the club for a further week.
On the field, there's little for Mark Robins to tinker with and it'll be as you were with much the same squad of players looking to tighten up after shipping nine goals in their last two games on the road.
Rumours this week have surrounded youth team 'keepr Mark Oxley, who has been linked with several Premiership outifts. He may be involved and there could also be a place for fellow teenager Dave Haggarty, both lads are due to appear for England U18's next week against Austria.
Jamie Yates and Ian Ross were taken ill last weekend, Ross coming off at half time in the defeat by Brentford, but both should return.
The play off picture is just out of reach for our opponents, as the Codheads injury ravaged outfit play out the season looking for no more than a chunk of pride.
Boss Alan Buckey has to do without midfielder Paul Bolland, James Hunt and Danny North.
Nathan Jarman serves a one match suspension after his red card at Rochdale last week, freeing up space in the squad for young centre half Matt Bird.
Here's the head to head.
