Despite the result, Fraser has admitted that there were still plenty of positives for him to take from his first start in English football’s top-flight.
"It was a massive day. I’ve spent years trying to get to this position," said the Scotsman.
"I didn’t even think I’d travel so it was a big moment.
“We went through shaping and normally Tinners (Simon Weatherstone) takes out the bibs for the subs when we’re running through things. I’m used to just putting my hand out, but surprisingly I was picked to play!
“Obviously it’s a massive achievement for myself. I was straight on the phone to my dad as I knew he’d be pleased for me.
“I’ll take it in my stride and hopefully I start next week. It’s a good one to take away.”
Fraser also spoke of his relief after recovering from a hamstring injury that ruled him out for long parts of last season, where he spent much of his time on loan at Ipswich.
"It was hard. I was supposed to be out for four weeks and it ended up being five months," he admitted.
"I obviously came back and wanted to push things as a young lad.
"Getting back to Ipswich, I wanted to play games and pulled it again and then after that I pulled it again trying to get back.
"I spoke to Eddie and we cancelled the loan to just focus on it.
"Now my hamstring is better and I wished I’d just done that in the first place but that’s what young minds do I suppose."
