Forrester was dismissed by referee Mark Haywood for foul and abusive language towards an assistant referee while contesting the opening Walsall goal in a 2-0 League One defeat at the Banks’s Stadium on Saturday (February 18).

Grant had earlier picked up an 11th yellow card of the season. He carried 10 yellow cards and a red one with him when transferring from Port Vale on January 31.

Posh have major midfield problems for their League One home games with play-off rivals Southend tomorrow (February 21) and Rochdale (February 25) as in-form Gwion Edwards also picked up a serious-looking injury late in the match at Walsall.

The details of that injury have yet to be disclosed by the club.
