Poll : Billy Mckay's price tag

[old caley girl]

If we have a million pound player in our ranks then its Shinnie.

Take it these offers for Billy have remained non-existent?

I sooo hope so!

[Scarlet Pimple]

Billy's worth is not base on how many he has missed but how many he has scored.

 

The pass from Williams last Saturday right across the face of the goal, and others, was missed by Billy by a hair's breadth. On another day he would have scored.

 

With only 9 days to go to the end of the January window it's getting less likely that he will be off. Playing the waiting game is useful in negotiations from the buyer's point of view but the longer they leave it means that their chances lessen too.

 

But if he stays and scores the winning goal in the Final then his valuation will soar---hopefully.

[old caley girl]

Whose the two people who think we'd let him go for £250,000? Go on own up? ...lol

Aye me too! Name begin with a D by chance?

NO!.....not....Dennis the Menace?

[CELTIC1CALEY3]

With any luck Stevie May seems far more likely to be snapped up given his current form and allow Billy to complete his business with ICT.

[CaleyD]

It's Mckay...small "k"

 

Why does the price only go up as far as £3 Million?

 

His value should be set at what we think he is worth plus the cost of a replacement, especially as we don't have anyone to step in already on the books.

BBC Gossip section:

 

"Peterborough director of football Barry Fry has admitted defeat in his quest to sign St Johnstone striker Stevie May and Inverness CT marksman Billy McKay." (Mail)

 

Can't find the article online, so I don't know if they have had a bit rejected, or just cooled their interest after seeing Billy's poor finishing on Saturday. Just 1 goal from his last 6 games means his value has undoubtedly dropped since this poll was started, either that or Billyhas been trying to deter bids cos he wants to stay,  and will revert to previous scoring form this weekend after the window shuts.

I can't find the Barry Fry article either.

 

You're right Yngwie,  Billy's lack of goals in recent weeks undoubtedly will have put off some interested parties.  As I've said in earlier posts on this thread I always thought many posters on here were hugely optimistic with their valuations in the millions for Billy.

 

A nice hat trick on the big stage on Sunday might change things in the summer.

[Kingsmills]

I think the January speculation may have got to Billy a bit and his downturn in form is no coincidence. Hopefully, once the window closes tomorrow, he can get back to goal scoring business with Sunday no better time to start.

Eurosport make this brief but hopefully accurate statement:

 

Inverness have held on to top goalscorer Billy McKay for another few months after manager John Hughes confirmed no-one else would leave the club before the window closed.

[starchief]

Good.  He's been very close a few times.  I don't think he is off form, it's just been a few good saves and a touch of luck.

 

To think Celtic could have signed Mckay and Stevie May instead of Bangura and Pukki.  They'd have more goals and probably over a couple of million left over.

Maybe, just to be on the safe side, Yogi could stick him in the boot of his car just until midnight tomorrow.

Yogi stating on today's prematch interview that no one is leaving! Good enough for me.

What about an incomings, did he mention any possible additions in his pre match interview?

He said that he wouldn't rule out 1 or 2 coming in tomorrow OR free agents if their available and can help team, Max Gradel available after terminating contract at ST-Ettiene and missing out on a West Ham move so at moment he's a free agent, worth signing lol?

[Sneckboy]

I'd been apprehensive of the looming mid-season window fearing the loss of one or more key players like McKay, Vincent or Draper. But it looks like we'll be 'unscathed' - big boost ahead of Sunday.

(Mind you, the final day's often when there's most transfer activity!)

Strikers currently available as free agents include Nacho Novo, Torbjorn Agdestein, Graham Bayne and Mo Bangura. Take your pick.

Having the power to see who voted what I can tell you you're very wrong.

Poor old "D'- always the target  . Some people just can't leave the chap alone ...
