TopCat got a reaction from tuurner in Speculation Thread
Caldwell is 20 years old. How can you write anyone off at that age? If he offers some pace from the bench then that's good enough, it not it's not much too lose. Sure he won't be any worse than Caprice or the ilk.
The centre back has decent enough pedigree. Livi fans said he was a man mountain and would like him back. He's played for Maribor in the Champions League qualifiers and at u21 international level over there.
I'd be happy of we signed those 2 before the start of the season. That then gives us till the end of the window to identify areas of concern and and snap up a couple more loans to give the squad more padding.

Would you rather we signed a free agent on a 1 year deal or a EPL on a 1 year loan?
It's effectively the same thing.

Well yes. 3 have been promoted from the academy and have been given first team contracts: Adam Brown, Declan Hughes and Mark Williams.
I'm happy with the state of the squad at the moment. I think we need 2 more signings, a right sided defender and a pacey forward player.
Caldwell and Mevlija (sp?) could be these two players.

I'd rather we put players from the youth team in the squad, instead of signing wasters like Caprice, Bahoken & Grainger.

I have to laugh at the hand-wringing over some of the players who people are citing as us having 'lost' since last season, and therefore needing to be replaced.
Bahookie, DD, Cornell, Harkins, Caprice....I could go on. We would have been better off without these guys never mind worrying now about their departure. Yes, we need cover, but I am confident that we would be better taking a chance on our own kids than these guys. Give me Declan Hughes over Djemba Djemba any day of the week, and I can't remember even seeing this lad play!
I reckon four more signings will do it, and think we will get at least three. Too early to panic, folks. When all is said and done, we aren't really worse off than we were at the end of last season. Sure, we would like to see improvement and to push on, but we also need to factor in a new(ish) coaching set up, and give them a chance to demonstrate what they can do.
Chill people, get out and enjoy the sun while you can, and be thankful for being a Buddie!

Is he a director? I didn't think he sat on the Board.
