Scunthorpe United 2 - 1arrow 1 (Quigley 16) Barrow fell to a fourth consecutive defeat in heart-breaking fashion thanks to an injury time goal from Scunthorpe captain Jordan Clarke. A scrappy affair saw the Bluebirds’ Scott Quigley cancel out Abo Eisa’s opener in what was a lively opening, which looked to have earned a point until the death. The Bluebirds are now ten games without a victory in all competitions, having not won in League Two since October. Caretaker boss Rob Kelly named five changes from the side that proved to be David Dunn’s last at Crawley on Saturday. It took six minutes for Kelly’s men to carve out their first chance. After Harrison Biggins’ free kick bounced off the Scunthorpe wall for a throw, Patrick Brough found Quigley in the area who turned and bent a low effort just beyond the far post.
