The Wings currently occupy fourth position, and have strengthened
their squad since the turn of the year, displaying their intentions to really
push on after finding themselves in with a shout of promotion going into the
second half of the campaign. Former Sunderland and Burnley striker Ryan Noble
has joined the Wings until the end of the season, and is expected to make an
appearance this weekend. Having also spent time on loan at Derby County and
Hartlepool United, the 22year old front man brings a wealth of experience for
his age, and can play out wide as well as up front. Gary Mills has also added
attacking midfielder JJ O’Donnell from title-chasers Luton Town on an initial
one month loan.
Iron loan signing Barnard Mensah is still awaiting his home
debut since joining from Watford. The striker did see some action at Woking
after coming on as a substitute, but is yet to tread the Amlin turf due to
postponements since his arrival.
Devonshire’s side currently sit in fourteenth place as they
look to get back to league action, nine points adrift of Gateshead with five games
in hand. The sides are yet to meet this term, but it is Braintree who have come
out on top in recent contests, running out winners last season on both
occasions by a single goal. The last meeting saw Sean Marks claim all three
points, adding to a Dean Wells volley which had put Braintree ahead until the
85th minute. The Wings looked to have rescued something from the
game when Ben Everson struck with just five minutes to play, but an instant reply
from Marks saw the visiting Iron take all three points on the road.
