Scunthorpe boss Nigel Adkins:
"We had a poor performance at the weekend against Hull City and we needed to bounce back.

"In difficult conditions I thought my players were magnificent, as they have been for most of this season.

"We might have had a bit of fortune with the goal but we have deserved some luck after decisions which have gone against us this season."

Plymouth boss Paul Sturrock:
"We did better with 10 men than we did with 11.

"Our whole psyche seems to have changed and for some reason we want to play differently to the way we did when he had our run of success.

"We didn't show urgency in the early stages and didn't play our game."
