Blair made it three goals in under a week with his brace

Matty Blair scored twice as Kidderminster ended Grimsby's five-match unbeaten run.

Harriers got off to an ideal start when Chris McPhee tucked away Lee Morris's pass and Blair fired home Mike Williams' cross to double their lead.

Robert Eagle pulled one back with a 25-yard strike, but Blair headed home four minutes later to re-establish Harriers' two-goal lead.

Alan Connell gave the Mariners hope with a header but Harriers held on.
