On-loan Grimsby Town goalkeeper Alan Fettis has been recalled for the Northern Ireland squad to face Estonia on Wednesday. The Hull City 'keeper has just one full International cap to his name, although he is not expected to play against Estonia.

Darren Mansaram is still waiting to see what ban he receive for being sent off against Chesterfield on Saturday. The Doncaster-born striker received a red card for swearing at the referee after coming on as a substitute. It is thought likely he will face a three match ban.

Former Mariner Des Hamilton is now training with Barnet on a non-contract basis after walking out of Blundell Park with less than a year gone on his two-year-contract with the Mariners.

"I did not enjoy my football at Grimsby or my time there. It was starting to bother me." the former Newcastle midfielder, who once cost £1m, told the Grimsby Telegraph. "The team was not playing well and they were difficult times. It was better that I cut all ties. I regret my time at Grimsby because it didn't work out."

Phil Jevons won the Fishy player of the Month for February. The March nominations will be announced shortly.

Town's reserve side lost 3-1 at York this afternoon. Nimmo was on target for Grimsby's second string.

Town: Chittlock, Ward, Hyam, Newton, Wheeler, L Parker, W Parke, Hockless, Newton, Hegarty, Nimmo, Huckett, Howard, Chatterton, Hyam.
