Stags Sign Gritton

Mansfield have signed Lincoln striker Martin Gritton on loan until the end of the season.

Gritton, 28, joined Lincoln from Grimsby for a small fee last January but has slipped down the pecking order and has been told his contract will not be renewed in the summer. He has started six games so far this season with 12 subs appearances, scoring twice.

The Stags have also confirmed the arrival of Barry Conlon from Darlington. He scored a hat-trick on the opening day of the season against Macclesfield but hasn't scored since mid September, bagging six goals in total from 23 appearances.

The new pair of strikers replace departed forwards Richie Barker and Adam Burchill, and are both expected to start tomorrow's match at Edgar Street.
