Brave move considering our lack of defensive options at the moment.
Lets hope Aaron Hughes doesn't get a recurrence of his injury on international duty.

Good move for both parties I would suggest. My Gillingham supporting friend tells me they are struggling defensively.

Which leaves us with ONE recognised left back for a month. Ok.

Hughes and Calderon cover it.

Not seen such Bravery!
A player cannot be recalled within the 1st 28 days of a short term loan.

Fair enough. Chicksen's contribution to the cause so far has been negligible.
Oh. Bit of a gamble then.

Good move. Let's hope he gets game time.

Not from what I heard about this deal.

Yep, makes you wonder. Left back is a bit of a specialist slot. Yes Calde can play here, but come on, this decision is baffling to say the least.

Does it not specify the 28 days in the loan rules
Maybe not, can't be bothered to check right now...HawkTheSeagull

They can - all depends on the deal though and if a recall clause is included - which it probably is.
Makes sense, get him some game time whilst technically still keeping him as a back-up.

So if Bennett is out, would you favour calde over chick in this role?

No not sure I would but the more game time Chicksen gets the more confidence and fitness to help us out if he is needed. Just chucking him in for a game here and there has not worked. I hope and expect we have a recall clause. I love Calde but he doesn't inspire me even as right back. I think Chicksen has potential

I concur, the boy has pace but seems to loose his mojo when he steps over the half way line. Loads of potential though.
