Fraser Fyvie

[California-Hibs]

So, I'm not sure how this passed me by but I just stumbled across the fact that Fraser Fyvie has been playing for Cove Rangers in League...2!

The guy who just a few years ago was lifting the Scottish Cup with us....what the heck has happened? I always thought he was a very handy player for us and have to admit to being very surprised he's been playing as low a standard as League 2. What makes it even more bizarre is checking his age, hes only bloody 27! Prime of his career etc

Again....what happened?!

Most recent interview (about a month ago think it was reminiscing about the cup) he talked about this.
Made the decision for his family no regrets.

[Viva_Palmeiras]

He adds: “Choosing to leave [Hibs] was more about my family and moving back up the road.
“It wasn’t even close to being a footballing reason and, with the benefit of hindsight and only talking about football, I should have stayed, 100 per cent. But in terms of my family life, it’s the best thing I’ve ever done. That comes first.”

If I am not mistaken I'm pretty sure his knee is a problem as well, he's had two cruciate injuries on the same one, that may be a factor.

Always speaks fondly about Hibs. He did a podcast with Football CFB recently as well. Says it was the worst footballing decision of his career to leave, however the decision was taken for other reasons.

He was an integral part of that midfield. Loved watching him play, had a bit of bite and could play a pass.

Really liked him as well, I was sad to see him go and put it down to a fall out but fair play to him it can’t be easy making those choices in a short career like football so I’m glad he’s no regrets about it.

Cove are pretty ambitious, they've got a bit of money and are paying decent wages for League 2 - underlined by them getting promotion to League 1 at the first attempt without too much bother. If he needs or prefers to be in the area for family reasons or otherwise then its not a bad place for him to be.

Fyvie done a decent job but his passing could be erratic and he could be wasteful in possession. Good engine though and knew how to tackle.
He will always be remembered as part of that team but few were worried when he left.

They have a number of really good players there as well as Paul Hartley managing them. I watched them a couple of times last season and whilst Fyvie was obviously a class act they were far from a one man band. Like you say, they are a team looking to move up the leagues and he will probably enjoy going on that journey with them. His wage won’t be bad either.

Good player, liked him a lot.

Megginson, Masson, Watson, Higgins, Fyvie, McAllister are all very good players. Wouldn't shock me for them to challenge for promotion this coming season as well.

Used to work for a director and a couple of their players worked with us - to be able to offer players who nearing the end of their career or indeed who have had bad injuries a full time job as well as regular first team football is a powerful tool. We occasionally managed to get into hospitality and they're a really excellent, ambitious club and I keep a keen eye on their results.

Saw him playing v Elgin City not long ago and he was utter mince and rightly subbed

[Craig_in_Prague]

If he'd gave the ball away in the last moments of the game (bad pass or so)... or crossed or lost it instead of letting it run out on 79th minute... quite possibly no cup win.

Small moments with big impact.

Limited player but liked him, added bite and as it shown that great day, a footballing head when needed too.

Allan is the only midfielder better than Fyvie we've signed since he left.

His passing could be erratic, but he also passed it twice as much as anyone else. Always available. The Fyvie that left Hibs would be one of the first names on the teamsheet now IMO.

I’d say Mallan is probably better than Fyvie

The master of the misplaced 5 yard pass. Toiled badly at Dundee utd it's no surprise he's ended up down the leagues.

He’s a much better player than Fyvie imo

[Fergos]

If you want to understand what FFs all about, watch Time For Heroes. Maybe not the most gifted, but a very decent player and a winner. And now a legend.

Only at shooting, everthing else not in my opinion. Been missing for 18 months now.

He misplaced one pass at Ibrox and this nonsense has stuck... embarrassing

Master at winning the Scottish cup and promotion.

Oh, and the FA Cup.

Fyvie a better all round player.

Having watched the cup final a good few times, he was outstanding on that day!

My Dundee Utd supporting pal said he was their most influential player until he received his injuries, couldn't keep up the pace after that.

"Toiled" at utd? Lol

Even though I knew SJM was destined for better things, I thought he was our best player when he was at Hibs. Dictated the pace of the game, linked defence to attack brilliantly. Poor judgment on his part to play games with Lenny when it came to renewing his contract and I think injuries have taken their toll on him which is why he finds himself at Cove.
