Grimsby Town vs Shrewsbury Town - Grimsby wait on East injury news
Posted Saturday, December 05, 2015 by PA
Grimsby defender Danny East is an injury doubt for Monday's home FA Cup tie against Shrewsbury.
East missed last week's home win against Kidderminster due to a foot problem and will be monitored by boss Paul Hurst.
Otherwise, Hurst has a fully-fit squad to choose from and he must decide whether to hand a full debut to recent signing James Alabi, on loan from Ipswich, up front alongside Padraig Amond.
The Mariners, who have beaten Harrogate Town and St Albans in previous rounds, have won their last five matches in all competitions.
Ian Black is suspended for Shrewsbury after the midfielder was sent off against Walsall.
The midfielder was booked for throwing the ball away and then a late tackle on Jason Demetriou meaning he will serve a one-match ban against the Mariners.
Mat Sadler is pushing for a recall having been left out against for the 3-1 defeat against the Saddlers, his former club, despite being available after suspension.
Jean Louis Akpa-Akpro is pushing to start after replacing Larnell Cole at half time on Tuesday.
