Scunthorpe United boss Brian Laws wasn't about to pull his punches after seeing his side surrender a late equaliser courtesy of a bizarre refereeing mix-up.
With his assistant frantically waving his flag, the Scunthorpe players had all but stopped in the 89th minute.
Only Macclesfield attacker John Miles continued, snaking past the static defenders to set upMatthew Tipton who flipped the ball over a bemused Tom Evans for his fifth goal of the season and a vital point in John Askey's attempt to get the full time post at the Cheshire club.
Macclesfield regrouped and in the 37th minute they notched a deserved equaliser when Danny Whitaker converted a Miles cross with a near post half volley.
But it seemed that the Irons had settled the game through their on-loan Glasgow Rangers striker who extended his lead at the top of the Division Three goal-scoring charts with a neat strike in the 55th minute, cleverly turning Karl Munroe before sliding the ball under the stranded Steve Wilson.
