Grimsby striker Danny North should retain his place in manager Alan Buckley's attack for the visit of Brentford to Blundell Park on Monday.North came off at half-time in his first appearance in four matches following a knee injury but should partner Martin Butler up front.

Midfielder Peter Till had another successful match against Mansfield, scoring the first goal, and seems to have shrugged off his hip injury.

Another midfielder, Ciaran Toner, is also back in training after his long-term ankle injury, but he is not expected to figure in Buckley's plans just yet.

James Hunt could also step in after coming on for North against the Stags.

The Mariners are without a win in their last three home matches and will need to rectify that to make a late run into the play-off places.
