Midfielder to spend a second month at Blundell Park

Grimsby Town have extended the loan of Doncaster Rovers midfielder Stuart Elliott into a second month. Elliott has scored once in four appearances since joining the League Two strugglers on an initial month's loan in early January. He had struggled for regular football at Doncaster after linking up with the club permanently last summer, having previously been on loan from Hull City. Mariners boss Mike Newell was happy to be able to extend the deal and is confident the 30-year-old has more to offer at Blundell Park. "Stuart and the other loan players have given us something different," Newell told the club's official website. "I don't think we've seen the best from him yet. He will get fitter with first-team games, and he has always got a goal in him."
