    Would of definitely kept him. Thought he was decent when given a rare chance at us and hes been banging them in at dundee and hamilton. Strong and athletic, just the kind of striker we need

    When I lived in the Pans, some folk preferred the Courier. I always an East Lothian News man myself though.

    I said this a while ago actually. Never done to much wrong at Hibs and it was a pretty rubbish team at that point i seem to recall. Looked very handy at Dundee, seem to remember seeing his name coming up on the SSN videprinterthingy every couple of minutes. Good at Hamilton too.

    Yes, i would gladly have him as a squad member.

    very very average. Lower SPL player. Only several times better than Nish...

    He has almost as many threads about him on this site as he has had clubs. Top of the SFL to lower half of the SPL is his level. Would seem a bit odd that of the thirteen or fourteen clubs that this boy has had, he has only been good enough for us? Should never have been anywhere near a Hibs jersey.

    That mindset tainted most people's views on him.

    Every gimmick hungry yob,
    Digging gold from rock and roll
    Grabs the mic to tell us,
    He'll die before he's sold.

    I'd have him in a flash, strong, athletic and can score a goal. Had a feeling he might come good when he left us

    Always liked Curier, and considering we are now all looking for a big strong striker, here was one at the club.

    The guy was slower than a weekend in Wigan and I've seen the QE2 turn faster. Absolute horse of a player. On a par with Konte and only twice as good as Nish, if that.

    The only thing that Courier brings is strength and he is brave (more than some of our lot who are frightened to break a toe nail if the Maribor game was anything to go by). However he is very little skill especially when shooting. Has anyone seen him practicing shooting from outside the box? If you have then you shouldn't be asking whether it was a mistake to let him go. He most definitely is not better than Nish, just compare the number of goals each scored in the SPL.

    Apart from making that Schowummini bloke look a half decent player, I really don't understand why this second rate clogger gets so many mentions. FFS he was put into the stiffs by Dundee yet he would walk into our team?? Really?? Is that a comment about him or us?

    Yeah but he went on to look good at Falkirk though.
