Grimsby were due to host Bradford City in a League Two match on Saturday followed by a trip on Tuesday to Hull City for an EFL Trophy fixture.

Grimsby's game at Cheltenham Town last Saturday was postponed after a first-team player tested positive for COVID-19.

New dates for the games will be announced later, the north-east Lincolnshire club said.
