Iron boss Graham Alexander has been nominated for the Sky Bet League One manager of the month award for October.
It comes after United once again maintained their position at the summit of Sky Bet League One which included emphatic victories over Chesterfield and Swindon.
In that time Scunthorpe have averaged two goals per game and gained 13 points from six matches.
It's Alexander's third nomination for the accolade since becoming manager of the club, winning in April of last season and gaining another nomination in August.
Also nominated are AFC Wimbledon's Neil Ardley, Phil Parkinson of Bolton Wanderers and new Coventry City boss Mark Venus.
The winner will be announced on Friday morning.
