Match-winner Jacob Butterfield was delighted to score the decisive goal in United's 1-0 home success over Brackley Town in front of over 5,000 Iron fans at Glanford Park on Saturday.
He said: "A lot of fans turned up. It was a great atmosphere and we marked it with a win. We've not had one for a few weeks as there has been a lot going on around the club. However, it just felt it was about the football only on Saturday and we got the win.
"It was a good performance against a decent team at this level, so we're really pleased."
Talking about his 61st minute free-kick which decided the game, he said: "We spoke in training on Friday, between the coaching staff and a few of us, about maybe moving the ball around rather than taking a direct free-kick, but I just assessed it and had a go, and hit it perfectly to be honest. It's one of them, where you know when you've hit it.
"We were pretty dominant throughout to be honest but the goal came at a good time."
Talking about Brackley, he added: "At this level, you'd expect them to be amongst the top four or five come the end of the season.
"We weren't at our fluent best and could probably play slightly better, but to get the clean sheet was important too. We were solid throughout."
Assessing the wider picture in general, the seasoned campaigner said: "It's been tough and not right that people are worried about the future of the club. There have been lots of meetings and it feels like the focus hasn't been on the football, but hopefully now we can focus on what we're here to do and get a positive end result.
"(What has happened in the last couple of weeks) shows what the club means to people, and we need to start moving forward again and make it the club it once was so it can prosper again in the future.
"We've got a good squad and there's no reason why we can't be successful now."
