Swindon travel to take on Grimsby Town at Blundell Park on Tuesday evening, and have come away with little in previous meetings, having been beaten a depressing 12 out of 18 times.
The last time the two teams met at Grimsby was just over four years ago, in August 1999, the Mariners carving out a narrow 1 - 0 victory in a League Division One match.
