Scunthorpe manager Brian Laws said: “What I saw in the second half - I’ve got more passion on the touchline than the type of players we have at this football club.
”They haven’t got the passion and the desire to move forward.
“What they are is a team that want to play nice football on a nice summer’s day.
“It doesn’t work like that - it’s hard work, it graft, it’s pride, it’s passion and they didn’t show that in the second half.”
