Indeed he did, I'd probably just prefer him to Calderon.

Seriously, there must be a free agent left back somewhere in the world, that we could afford, who could fill in for a month ?

As I thought, don't know what's happened to this lad, but then would he be any better than Chicksen? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Dudgeon
Possibly there is, but if they're a free agent they're going to take at least a month to get match fit. We've got Calde, and we've got Chicksen as back up should Calde also fall to the curse of the left backs. We're just going to have to manage.
OK, worst case scenario - we might lose at Derby - but that was never going to be a nailed-on win anyway, was it?

If the worst case is that we lose to Derby, then I reckon many would take that.
7 tricky fixtures until the transfer window opens ( including Wolves on Jan 1 ).

But it wont work againt a team like Derby who have a very strong atracking midfield with Ince and the right back Christie? attacking our left side knowing we have a weakness there. If we can hold out for a draw that will be brilliant and beyond belief that we could win.
OK, it never was a guaranteed nailed-on not to lose game either.

I am sure CH is chasing all options. I am bullied by the fact of him saying at the end of the loan window he was still searching for a left back whether he meant for now or January not sure.

Not nailed on but that must be our aim.

Flooding? Or flu in the Derby camp.
Alright, OK - we could lose all seven. Not that I expect us to - I mentioned Derby specifically because the main cause of twisted knickers on here deemed to be a dread of what Derby's right wing would do to poor old Calde. Of course it would be better if we had Bong and LR fit, but they're not, and the seven fixtures coming up were always likely to be tricky anyway - as of now, we'll just have to manage with what we've got.
I think we can trust CH to make the best possible use of what we've got. Go Calde go! - we might even pick up a few points from these matches!

If Calde was right back then I wouldn't be too nervous, but in my opinion he has never really shone on the left for us.
Our only aim must be to win - it's no good aiming for a draw; what's the use of doing that and not quite making it.

We could always hope that like last season we beat Derby and that starts a bad month for them.

Maybe not - but he's our third choice left back. Our first and second choices are out, so we have to play the third choice - that's what he's there for.
And, to be honest, as a third choice, he's not bad - I doubt if there are many better third choice left backs in the division anyway!
