Just wondering why a hatful of league one clubs haven't tried to buy him as goal scorers at any level are sought after.

Maybe our valuation hasn’t been met. Maybe it’s that high on purpose. If McKirdy stays and sees out his contract he’ll need to reproduce last season, or at least get somewhere near, if he’s to get his big(ger) move.
Best scenario, is he stays, we go up, he signs on again.

Suppose when you have the reputation he has alongside only having one successful season, clubs aren’t willing to take the risk until he backs it up with another good season. A high-maintenance player for someone who could easily flop in the division above - especially under the wrong manager. |

Spot on with your comments. He's had a few clubs and it never worked out until last season. There's no doubting his talent but there's also a doubt with his off the field antics which some managers wouldn't let him get away with. The problem we could have now is his agent gets into his head and he starts to lose interest in playing for us. |

Spot on, many will want to see if he can be managed by someone else and recreate his form, unless it is Charlton of course |

Undisclosed fee 150,000+ would be about right now but much less In January
Put the glass down Jim 😉 If Ipswich value Simpson with a £600k tag for a short spell with us and not much more. Against a diminutive skinny whippet with a shit hairstyle (ok the Barnet has been fixed now) who has a few seasons under his belt and 24 goals then £150k is way to low, maybe £400k plus might be fairer valuation. |

I can't see anything over £200k LL with only one year left on his contract plus some managers might not want his type of personality but hey I may be wrong. |

I do always find these discussions fascinating and probably why most clubs just ignore fans.

I suspect if they are genuinely interested, mckirdy would kick the door down to rejoin Garner and Payne at Charlton.
Let’s hope the rumoured striker isn’t him or this could get very messy.

Had a quick look around their forum and twitter and couldn’t see anything. Not doubting you. |

McKirdy in the current climate is worth about £250k to £300k I would think with add ons for goal targets and promotion etc probably rising to £500k.
If we get that then I think we will be doing ok, Newport lost the league top scorer telford to Creepy for free as they let his contract run out, at least we will get a fee when he does move on, which I feel could be before the end of this transfer window, just my thoughts not based on anything.

Nah, because a few on here said Garner is not raiding his former club. |
