Peter Hynes (born November 28, 1983 in Dublin) is a footballer. He began his career with Aston Villa, where he won the FA Youth Cup in 2002. He had loan spells at Doncaster Rovers and Cheltenham Town, before being released in 2004.

He had a spell with Tamworth in the Conference, before joning Dublin City. John Gill's last signing before relinquishing managerial duties at Dublin City in July 2004, Hynes was deployed primarily as a striker by Gill's successors Roddy Collins and Dermot Keely.

Despite scoring the late winner which consummated Dublin City's memorable reversal of a 0-2 deficit into a 3-2 victory away to Derry City late in the 2004 season, Hynes' sojourn with the Vikings was to end in acrimony, as he was substituted for disciplinary reasons after just four minutes of the now-relegated City's final fixture against Shamrock Rovers at Tolka Park.

In contrast to his uninspired form with Dublin City, Hynes has proved markedly more productive in the colours of Dundalk, whom he joined in 2005, scoring six goals from midfield in 2005.

He formed, alongside Philip Hughes (with whom he played at Dublin City) one half of a prolific forward pairing which has manoeuvred Dundalk into a strong position in the eircom League First Division. He was released by Dundalk following a breach of Club discipline on the November 14, 2006 ^[1]. He was deemed to have rang John Gill the Dundalk FC manager while out celebrating with rival players of Shamrock Rovers and making unprofessional remarks to him which left Gill no choice but to release him. Dundalk without Hynes went on to win the two legged promotion/relegation playoff against Waterford United

He studied at Drimnagh Castle CBS Walkinstown, He was a student in the same class a Dublin City midfielder Robert Collins
