TICKETS for the long-awaited St George's Day derby clash with Scunthorpe on April 23rd are fast selling out. Home tickets have now gone on sale to season ticket holders (no limit) and those holding ticket stubs from the previous two home games.

Any remaining tickets go on general sale on Friday. United, who are pushing for an automatic promotion place, are likely to sell their full 2200 allocation very quickly.

Grimsby have yet to win a Lincolnshire derby this season, and will want revenge for their 2-0 defeat at Glanford Park earlier in the campaign.

  • Forgotten man Tony Crane is pressing for a first team recall after a season spent on the sidelines through injury. The former Owl, who is one of a handful of players still under contract at Blundell Park next season, scored the winner in the reserves' 1-0 defeat of Scunthorpe this week.

    Town boss Russell Slade acknowledged Crane's performance against the Iron has done him no harm. "Tony has done well to get back so quick. That's the best I've seen him looking and he's knocking on the first-team door," said Slade.

  • The club's end-of-season awards night will take place in the McMenemy Suite at Blundell Park on Tuesday, May 10, from 7.30pm.
