We return to Blundell Park tomorrow evening as attention turns to Emirates FA Cup action, with Weston-super-Mare visiting in the third round of the competition.
David Artell’s side are among the final 64 teams left in this season’s FA Cup and head into the tie in confident form, unbeaten in their last three matches and having kept a clean sheet in each of those games. With performances on the pitch now being matched by positive results, the Mariners will be looking to seize the opportunity to progress to the last 32 and keep their cup journey alive under the lights.

Fallen Mariners
As this fixture marks our first home match of 2026, the Club will take a moment to remember and honour supporters we have sadly lost over the past year.
Shortly before kick-off, we will continue our annual tradition of paying tribute to our Fallen Mariners, with their names displayed on the big screen during a minute’s applause, and photographs featured in the matchday programme. Supporters are kindly asked to take their seats earlier than usual to join us in this moment of remembrance and respect.
Mighty Mariner
Mighty Mariner will be around the ground with his selfie frame from 3:45pm onward and will be available for photos with supporters.
During half time tomorrow afternoon, we’re giving two young Mariners the chance to step onto the Blundell Park pitch for a fun-filled penalty shootout challenge – with The Mighty Mariner in goal!
If your child would like to be one of the two lucky participants, The Mighty Mariner and his chaperone will be around the ground from 3:45pm, on the hunt for two willing volunteers.
Please note, the maximum age for volunteers is 14-years-old, and the two children will be selected on a first come, first served basis.

Tickets cost just £1 each and are sold all around the ground on a matchday. The draw takes place on the pitch at half-time, and the winning numbers will be announced by the stadium announcer.
