"We've got a couple of lads on trial with us and they'll both play against Grimsby Borough," he said.
"There have been a lot of names flying about, but the two that we've got are Lewis Chalmers and Derek Niven.
"Derek has played a whole host of games for Chesterfield and captained the side. He's got bags of energy and likes to charge around and be a ball winner.
"They have been working hard in training throughout the week and have done well.
"Both of them play in midfield so we've got a decision to make on them after the game, but they're being kept in the loop as to what the situation is.
"Hopefully they will give us something to think about in the game.
"There could well be some more trialists come into the football club between now and the end of pre-season because there are a lot of players out of contract on the look out for new clubs at the minute."
