Braintree Town manager Alan Devonshire has strengthened his midfield options ahead of a busy run of Blue Square Bet Premier games with the loan signing of Southend United youngster Alex Woodyard.
The 20-year-old has joined the Iron on a month-long deal ahead of their home game against Woking on Tuesday.
The game is the first of a run of four home games in eight days for Braintree.
