    Very disappointed in his performance. He takes the ball in midfield and just passes back to one of our centre halfs or the deep lying full back. Is there something in his contract which states he isn't allowed to pass the ball forward? He doesn't run enough to make up for his "distribution", should be dropped and sent back whence he came ASAP.

    he slows all momentum down, buzacky was piss poor today, threw an hissy fit in dugout when taken off. this is looking like the year we fall through the trap door.

    Greening doesn't look match fit to me. Buzacky coming off 2 mins into the second half was strange. Then again they are loan players. How much do they really care?

    Greening is a very tidy footballer but he does play it sideways when a forward pass is on way too much. He seems to slow the pace of our game down, in contrast to Perkins who gets us moving forward. Hill says he wanted him to be the 'handbrake', well he certainly is that, but it isn't what we need.

    I can understand the frustration with Greening but I think he is a very good player and dare I say it too good for our shambles of a team. To get the best out of him you can't have six other men on the same postage stamp with nobody moving at all.

    First time I've seen him since we got him in on loan, and wasn't at all impressed. He really does only ever go sideways or backwards. Doesn't offer anything of note, pointless player

    wow

    Greening is too good for us?

    That is an eye opener

    Despite his God given vision he sees nothing before him that warrants a forward pass

    We have been bereft since Butterfield stopped playing for us

    I think greening is a good player and a player you need in your team! I think buszaky is a waste of money. He came here to Create things from the middle but creates nothing. So why should he play in the middle ahead of Perkins, Dawson or mellis? He shouldn't!! He will be gone come January so Keith needs to see sense and get his team in order for when these bog standard players go back to there parent club! We lacked creativity in the middle and since Perkins hasn't played we create less! Mellis has had a bad few games but has still created 7 goals in a team that has only scored 8 goals at home!

    Goals are still hard to come by for us and its really frustrating me now because i just cant see an end to it. I do think we were unlucky today and on another day could have won by 2 or 3 clear goals! Hill looks as though he sets us up to crowd the midfield and stop the oposition but it is stopping us as an attacking force. we needs to throw a bit of caution to the wind and have a go at teams with some wide men running at full backs getting balls in the box. We might be more open but what have got to lose?

    Might as well get Alex Neil back because he used to only pass it sideways or backwards!

    Greening has brought nothing for me. The master of the square and backward pass. No thanks. I think he signed him for the sake of it

    i would like to see greening as a centreback paired with cranie, duracell and dawson just in front and o'brien in the centre/playmaker/2nd striker option just behind tudgay/davis

    Greening has been poor and if Hill thinks that the only position Bobby can play is the holding central midfield role surely he could do this better than Greening. Waste of money.
