Blue sq premier: Grays face Mansfield Town tomorrow.

Their Stags hosts will go into the match in buoyant mood after pulling off an fine 3-1 win at Gateshead on Tuesday night.

Mansfield are currently filling fifth position, the final play-off place, and have lost just once in 10 league outings at home.

In stark contrast, Julian Dicks’s men - having picked up four points from their previous two games - slipped back in midweek when they crashed 1-0 at home to Histon.

They currently stand fourth from bottom, the final relegation place, and Ebbsfleet United, moved to within a point of the New Rec side on Tuesday with a fine 2-1 home win over Stevenage Borough. Grays then play their fourth round Essex Senior Cup tie at Blue Square South Chelmsford City on Monday.
