Gillingham v Grimsby

Gillingham boss Mark Stimson has hinted that striker Gary Mulligan could be included in his starting line-up for the first time this season.

The Gills face strugglers Grimsby in Coca-Cola League 2 at Priestfield on Saturday with Mulligan set for a bigger role after being on the bench for the first four league games.

Stimson said: "It will be a close one. Gary has done well when coming off the bench and it'll be a tough decision for me."

Gillingham will be looking for their third consecutive win and could move into the play-off places against a Grimsby side still searching for their first league win.

"Grimsby will come to us with a game plan which will be a bit like Accrington’s," added Stimson.

"It’s up to us to break them down. What we’ve got to realise is that the game is over 90 minutes and you have to be patient sometimes."

Simon King (hamstring) and Curtis Weston (cramp) are both fit for the game.
