Micah Anthony Hyde (born November 10, 1974) is an English-born Jamaican footballer currently playing for English League 2 team Peterborough United where he is the current club captain.
Born in the London Borough of Newham[1], he played for the youth team of Brimsdown Rovers alongside David Beckham.[2] He joined Watford in 1997 after a move from Cambridge United. Having made well over 200 appearances for the Hornets, he was sold to Burnley in mid-2004.
Hyde became an established Championship player and was largely considered one of Burnley's most consistent performers over the last two years. His hard-working play in the centre of the park made him almost ever-present in the side. In the 2004-05 season, he ensured himself of a place in Burnley's history when he scored the equalising goal away at Blackburn Rovers, Burnley's local rivals, in a FA Cup game.
At the end of the 2005-06 season, he was placed on the transfer list by Burnley manager Steve Cotterill along with three other players; Gifton Noel-Williams, Danny Karbassiyoon and Duane Courtney, but due to his efforts in pre-season was once again welcomed back to the first-team squad and taken off the list.
On January 11, 2007, he moved to Peterborough United for an initial fee of £75,000 plus an extra £25,000 if Peterborough are promoted this season.
