MARINERS fans who attend Saturday's FA Cup tie will have a greater chance of grabbing tickets for a potential third round clash with one of the 'big boys'.
Town host Northampton in the second round this weekend, with more than 2,000 tickets sold - and a 4,000-plus gate expected.
The Cobblers are likely to bring approaching 500 visiting fans for the encounter.
And, if the promise of an electric Blundell Park atmosphere wasn't enough - supporters who retain their counterfoils will have priority when it comes to third round tickets sales.
The Premier League and Championship giants enter the equation at the third round stage - with the draw to take place on Sunday.
Tickets for Saturday's game are on general sale from the ticket office or online at www.grimsby-townfc.co.uk
