Bristol Rovers fans all say same thing about West Brom loanee Josh Griffiths
Bristol Rovers supporters have urged the club to buy West Brom loanee Josh Griffiths.
The 23-year-old left the Black Country club on a temporary deal and has started all 27 League One matches so far, keeping seven clean sheets.
The goalkeeper made eight saves as the Gas beat Barnsley 3-1 in their league clash on Saturday (19 January).
That has led to Rovers fans calling for their side to sign the on-loan Albion stopper on a permanent basis.
West Brom loanee impresses Bristol Rovers fans
The Baggies loanee has impressed Rovers supporters so far this campaign and that was the case again on Saturday as he was a pivotal reason for their victory.
One supporter labelled him as “outstanding” and claimed he was the reason that the Gas walked away with three points.
Another commented that they would “go all out and buy him” and it was “about time we had a settled man between the sticks.”
The Baggies academy graduate has spoken of his desire to be Albion’s number one and feels like he has what it takes.
Griffiths has proved himself to be a reliable shot-stopper during his spell at the Memorial Stadium in the thrid tier of English football.
However, given the form of the experienced Alex Palmer, it feels unlikely that he could snatch the number-one status at the moment.
The young keeper has a decision to make when he returns to The Hawthorns because he is not likely to add to his 13 senior appearances for the West Midlands club anytime soon.
