Caldwell '˜comfortable' dealing with contract renewals and transfer negotiations

The manager said: “I don’t think we need to employ someone to do that.

“If we know budgets and Ashley works with the owner on that, I’m very comfortable dealing with that situation.”

Caldwell believes a more pressing need is in the area of recruitment and scouting.

“What I think we need is someone to find the players,” he said.

“What I can’t do is go to games every day, because I’m training. I can’t go to games at the weekend because we have games.

“We need someone to put in a department that actually finds the talent.

“Once we find the talent then getting them here shouldn’t be a problem.”
