Correct me if I'm wrong but this is our first league encounter and possibly our first ever in any competition. On looking at their messageboard they seemed quite confident the game will go ahead and the overnight precipitation didn't seem to amount to much in the Coventry area. I hope this doesn't jinx the chances of the game going ahead  We need the points, but we should expect Nuneaton to be as anxious to stop us doing it. So again we'll need to be at our best - Good luck and lets hear our fans on the radio again. |

Internet commentary from BBC Essex with Ben Fryer and myself. Fingers crossed the game goes ahead.
Come on the Iron.

Marks is absent due to family commitments? Whatever that is, we hope it's soon sorted and our Marksy's back leading the attack.

Saw about Sheppard on his twitter....
Also Devs mentioned it in his local rag column that Sheppard would benefit from playing a few games elsewhere!!

Luton beat Norwich in the F.A Cup, does that mean we are better than Norwich?

Not been well all week, but this win is all the tonic I need. Well done to Alan and the TEAM and also to those who travelled to the match.

We're top of the bottom half. That's more like it. Only kept out of the top half on goals scored

Great game, All players did well, Dan Holman best game, Walker has pace. And 50 yard thunderbolt from Wells.
The Iron are back.
Nice people at Nuneaton looked after us well.

Brilliant effort, just the tonic Devs needed to help his recuperation from illness. Keith Rowland made a lot of sense when interviewed after the match. All is well in IRON land  |

We took our chances really well today and Dan's finish for the second goal was superb and very important to get the lead back right after half time. And I wasn't even paying attention properly with Dean's goal because it came out of no where. A free kick was given, and then just a few seconds later the ball was flying towards the goal!
Same result on tuesday please. ;D Come on Braintree! ;D
Only worrying thing about today was that we gifted them 2 goals with free headers. Hopefully that can be improved for tuesday.

Good performance, although their keeper was poor. James headed the first one, keeper nowhere to be seen. Dan scored a thumping good goal, some of his touches in the 6yd box were pure class. Dean Wells free kick from about a mile out, soared over the flapping keeper and nice to see Bradley Dack on the score sheet. looks a good player, as does Dan Walker, although he was clutching is hamstring in the first half.
Thanks to the Nuneaton supporters who made us very welcome, a nice friendly club, hope we are playing them again next year in the Premier. Can recommend a visit to this ground.

Lots of praise for our Kenny on the Nuneaton forum. A true Captains performance by all accounts.

it seems we are well on our way now, anything at all against newport on tuesday will be a bonus. Will beinteresting to see if one or both of the loan deals can be extended as there could be weather disruption during feb

Glad to see kenny pull his finger out and find the form he possess. Great performance by all the squad and mt and my man of the match again who does what's required, he ticks the team ticks imo matt Paine.
(And yes he was wiped out in the penalty box).

I keep looking under the Nuneaton website match replays link on their website but so far no joy.
Perhaps they don.t show their defeats??
