Michael Coulson is a promising young striker who was playing Conference football for Scarborough as a 16-year-old before joining Barnsley in July 2006.

He was principally used as a substitute by the Tykes before suffering an injury in April 2008.

His problems continued through 2008-09 and early the following season he had a brief loan spell at Chester City before being loaned long term to Grimsby Town. Michael, who can play either as a wide attacking player or up front, appeared regularly for the Mariners, finishing as joint-top scorer.

He made the permanent move to Grimsby in the summer of 2010 and featured regularly in their first season in the Conference.
