Following their relegation with Town last season, Rushden have also seen many changes at Nene Park. Ernie Tippett (left) was appointed their new manager right at the end of last season, after Brian Talbot departed for Oldham Athletic, leaving the inexperienced Barry Hunter in the hotseat. Tippet is a former teacher who has spent some time on the coaching staff at Wimbledon and Manchester City in recent years. Hunter managed only one win from eight games in charge - one of which included a 1-0 defeat to the Mariners in April. Five days after that game at Blundell Park, Tippett was made Rushden boss, and after failing to keep the club in division two, he now sets out to help Rushden go straight back up at the first attempt.
In goal for Rushden is experienced keeper’ Bill Turley who has had spells in the league with Northampton and Leyton Orient. He became the Conference’s most expensive player in 1999 when he signed from Northampton for £120,000. Ex-Tranmere and Everton defender Graham Allen( left) was added to the squad over the summer and has added some much needed solidarity to the Rushden backline. He joins two other ex Tranmere players - Alex Hay and Sean Connelly. Up front for Rushden this season with Hay, has been Millwall youngster Kevin Braniff who scored against Lincoln last week. He is on loan from the New Den for three months.

Town last met Rushden just four months ago, when both teams were in Division two. A few weeks later, both clubs suffered relegation and now find themselves in the bottom division. The basement clash was watched by less than 4,000 at Blundell Park, and the fans saw Town dominate from the start, but struggle to find the back of the net. Rushden put lots of men behind the ball and looked to be heading for a 0-0 draw, until a Phil Jevons penalty in the 80th minute secured all three points for the Mariners. Rushden’s Jack Duffy was later sent off for elbowing Tony Crane . Interestingly, only there is only Jason Crowe and Darren Mansaram who started this game and are expected to start the game on Saturday - a sign of the changes in Cleethorpes over the past few months.
Grimsby Team: Fettis, Crowe, Crane, Edwards, Darren Barnard (Ford, 85), Anderson, Campbell, Coldicott, Jevons, Rankin, Mansaram (Soames, 74)
