ALAN DEVONSHIRE was delighted after his side produced a superb all-round team performance to beat last season's play-off finalists Wrexham.
Two own goals – either side of Dean Wells' effort – saw the Iron win on the road for the third time this season.
And Devonshire believes there is more to come from his side, who are now just a point outside the play-off places.
"It was a fantastic all-round team performance with every player working for each other and a fully deserved the win," Devonshire said.
"It's big pressure and hard on the players who are part-time and have to come up on such a long journey in midweek and play against a full-time side.
"But they showed great character and resilience, individually and as a team, to come and do the business and again in front of a big home crowd.
"I still say there's more to come from this team."
The win, which moves the Iron up to ninth place in the league, was hard fought and despite giving away a two-goal lead early on, allowing the home side to draw level, they came back strongly in the second half.
"I know two of our goals were down to own goals but it was because we forced their players into making mistakes," said Devonshire. "I'm really pleased though with the side's performance and the commitment and work rate of all the players and I believe we can get even better.
"It's another three points but we move on and I will be looking to keep the winning habit when we entertain Alfreton this Saturday."
Starting with the same line-up that began Saturday's 1-0 home win over Southport, the Iron had the best possible start when they took the lead after only three minutes with an own goal from Mark Carrington who couldn't stop Ryan Peters' effort from going into the net.
Fit-again Dean Wells made it 2-0 on 21 minutes when his left-foot shot beat home keeper Joslain Maeybi and more goals looked likely as they dominated the game with skipper Kenny Davis influential in midfield.
But the home side pulled a goal back on 29 minutes due to sloppy defending which allowed John Hunt to fire the ball home after being set up by the experienced Brett Ormerod.
Jay Hayes netted an equaliser on 34 minutes as the Iron seemed to take their foot off the accelerator giving the home side fresh incentive to put pressure on their defence.
The second half again saw the home side pushing hard for a third goal but tremendous defending by the Iron rearguard kept them at bay, while on the counter-attack they always looked the more likely to score.
What turned out to be the winning goal came on 70 minutes.
From a Davis corner, home defender Steve Tomassen could only put the ball into the back of his own net as he desperately tried to clear the ball away.
Although the home side pressed late on for another equaliser the Iron were much the stronger side and with some excellent defending kept their advantage to record another impressive away win.
"We know it's not easy to come to these kind of places, particularly when it involves such a long journey in midweek, but the players stuck to their tasks, worked hard and were rightfully rewarded with all three points," added Devonshire.
