Meanwhile, one player who has already left Lincoln City FC is defender Tom Kemp, who departed The Imps in November by mutual consent. He has now joined Conference club Tamworth after completing his transfer on Friday.

Saturday saw the return of former Imps' boss Alan Buckley to Sincil Bank. Buckley, who is now in charge of Grimsby Town for his third spell, was making his first return to Sincil Bank. It proved an unhappy experience as Lincoln City ran out 2-0 winners.

The first goal was scored in the 44th minute when Lee Frecklington's corner was flicked by Paul Morgan to Jamie Forrester. He in turn sent a right-foot shot into the net for 1-0 to Lincoln.

Grimsby were reduced to ten men in the 64th minute when their striker Gary Jones was dismissed for a foul on Nat Brown. Nine minutes later, Frecklington ensured Lincoln's victory when he benefited from Martin Gritton's header before firing the ball into the net. Overall, this was a deserved win for Lincoln City, who enjoyed majority of the possession.
