Have to say that the home games are becoming so frustrating to watch. It is just such a slow build up with no penetration whatsoever. Why oh why does Westbrooke continually put diabolical free kicks and corners in. The biggest mistaqke is not replacing JCH. The standard of passing in the final third is little short of pathetic and it is all tip tap sideways and back. Grant is one of the most the most negative players I have seen in a long time. I really struggle to see where goals are going to come from playing this style of football (if you can call it that!)

Can't believe your Grant comments - shocking !!

Said half time on the match thread. Continually pass the ball round the back go no where so hoof it, lose pocession. Lacked any ideas to breach there defence. 2nd half couldn’t wait for it to end. Really boring again. Would’nt mind Walsall doing us Saturday. Only the cup and B.G needs to feel some real pressure to change this weird mentality he seems to be driving in the players.

Grant has been the biggest disappointment for me this season, no idea how or why he’s still starting.

In the odd game he hasn’t been crap and has had an average game it stands out because he’s mostly been crap.

Agreed, but it's also been the first time I've seen a decent performance from him in a Rovers shirt.

Both of Posh's goals, and the shot which hit the post, came from midfield with Grant nowhere in sight? Everything in midfield goes via Westbrooke but he's not up to playing such a pivotal role, hence Harries kicks it long so often.

Grant seems like Marmite on here, personally I have seen nothing to suggest he is an improvement, on Clarke, Ogogo or Upson from last season.

Very frustrating. We had some decent spells, but after the 2nd goal went in we didn't create anything. We are really lacking any pace going forward. I wonder if it's worth giving JML a start on Saturday, although he hasn't really impressed off the bench. Disappointed with Oztumer, but again perhaps he needs a start before we can fairly judge him. Hare had his poorest game this season. At least Koiki looked like he had a bit of a spark. Westbrooke really needs to let someone else take some of the set pieces. I think we had 9 corners tonight and they all came to nothing.

Grant was very good tonight, neat and tidy in possession and won his fair share of headers particularly a few from dangerous balls into our box. I'm not sure what some people are expecting from him, it's not easy to stand out as a defensive midfielder, just because he doesn't charge around like a Sinclair or Ogogo doesnt mean he's not effective.

The comments about Grant shock me... he does everything you’d expect from him and doesn’t get involved in the playmaking as he’s not trying to be something he isn’t. Westbrooke spends his whole game playmaking but doesn’t actually create anything clear. Westbrooke for sure is better to watch, but Grant is 100X more effective at his role

This slow style of football I bet if the fans were there this would not happen they would b on there backs with no crowds it favours the away side especially at the mem

Yeah for the first goal he should have read that Kilgour was going to make a ridiculous lunge and completely take himself out of the game and have been sat in amongst the other two centrebacks ready!!!!
