[edit] Playing career
[edit] English career
Hynes began his career as a trainee with Aston Villa where he played in Villa's 2002 FA Youth Cup winning side and turned professional in August 2002. In need of first-team experience, he joined Doncaster Rovers on loan in December 2003,[1] making his league debut on December 13, 2003 when he came on as a late substitute for Gregg Blundell in Rovers' 3-1 defeat away to Cheltenham Town. He played in four further games for Rovers, all as a substitute, with his only goal coming in his final game, a 5-0 win at home to Leyton Orient on January 10, 2004.[2]
Later that month he joined Cheltenham Town on a month's loan,[3] playing four times before returning to Villa. He was released at the end of the season, joining Conference side Tamworth in June 2004[4][5] but left in July without playing a single game for the Lambs.
[edit] Irish career
Hynes joined Dublin City as John Gill's last signing before relinquishing managerial duties at Dublin City and 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 then-relegated City's final fixture against Shamrock Rovers at Tolka Park.
In contrast to his uninspired form with Dublin City, Hynes 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 manoeuvred Dundalk into a strong position in the Eircom League First Division. However, he was released by Dundalk following a breach of club discipline on November 14, 2006.[6] 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.
In January 2007 he joined Newry City,[7] but just over a month later on 28 February (the transfer deadline day for FAI National League clubs), he signed for Derry City.[8] The clubs agreed that Hynes would move for free but the agreement also contained a clause which would allow his former club to claim 30% of any future transfer fee if the player was to be sold on.
However, Hynes was not initially eligible to play for Derry City as FIFA's rules stated that no player could play for more than two different clubs between 1 July of one season and 30 June of the following year. In Hynes' case, he had already played for both Dundalk and Newry City between 1 July, 2006 and his signing for Derry City in February, 2007.[9] The Football Association of Ireland argued that, as they ran a league with an unconventional Summer season, such a state of affairs ought to be permissible for players playing in the FAI National League. With two weeks of the league season completed the association had yet to come to an agreement with FIFA. The player's clearance eventually came on 05 April.[10]
