Danish forward, David Nielsen will be in the starting lineup when the Mariners meet QPR at Blundell Park tomorrow night. With Pouton, McDermott and Livingstone having fitness problems, Lennie Lawrence will be looking to field Nielsen from the kick off.
This will please Nielsen who today expressed his pleasure at being in Grimsby and said he was delighted to be part of the winning team. The fans will also be pleased with that decision after the ovation he received on Saturday for the speed and skill he displayed during his 20 minutes in the game.
