SCOTT Brown is Grimsby Town's only absentee for tonight's clash at Braintree – but could be back in action in three games' time.
The midfielder continues his recovery from an ankle ligament injury as the Mariners go in search of a fifth consecutive win this evening.
But other than the former Southport man, Town boss Paul Hurst has a clean bill of health.
"Another pleasing thing from Saturday was that we got through injury-free, so it will be the same group of players travelling down to Braintree," commented Hurst.
"We're looking pretty strong as a squad – there's only Scott Brown currently missing who has shown what a good player he is.
"So far, in the two games that we've had without him we've managed to cope.
"That's credit to the squad and while we have got everyone fit I will back us most weeks – if not every week – to get a result.
"I would envisage that the next two games would certainly be too early for Scott.
"He's looking quite good, though, and I don't think he'll be that far away."
