Fiat punto has a grinding noise in first and second gear?

if you have selcted the gear and setting off and it sounds like grinding the gearbox is on its way out. but if it is grind ing when selecting gears its your clutch not realising properly which could be your master cylinder this only happens if your clutch pedal only as half of its full raise. but if this is not the case, it could be the clutch... but i would try putting gear oil in first in all the cases i have mentioned.
