Career

Nottingham Forest

Perch was born in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire and began his career at Nottingham Forest. He made 22 league appearances in his début season as Forest were relegated from the rebranded Football League Championship. His first professional goal came in the same season, scoring in the 63rd minute against Doncaster Rovers in the Third Round of the Football League Cup. After his first season, he signed a new contract to extend his stay a further 2 1/2 years.[3] He made over 200 appearances for Forest (including 30 league appearances in the 2007/08 campaign when Forest were promoted back to the Championship) before moving to newly promoted Newcastle United.

Newcastle United

On 5 July 2010, Perch signed for Newcastle United for an undisclosed fee believed to be around £1 million, on a four-year deal.[4] Forest had rejected a transfer bid from Newcastle in January of the same year.[5] He made his debut for Newcastle against Manchester United on 16 August 2010 in a 3–0 defeat.[6] On 18 September 2010, he set a new Premier League record by being the first player ever to receive five yellow cards in his first five games in the league.[7] His only goal for Newcastle came in a 4–3 defeat to Manchester United at Old Trafford in the Premier League.[8] During his stay, Perch was nicknamed "Perchinho" due to the fans respect for his steady performances and versatility.

Wigan Athletic

On 3 July 2013, Perch completed a move to recently relegated FA Cup holders Wigan Athletic, signing a four-year contract with the club. The transfer fee was undisclosed, but was estimated to be around £750,000.[9] Perch made his league debut for Wigan on 3 August 2013, in a 4–0 away victory over Barnsley.[10] He scored his first goal for the club on 9 March 2014, in a 2–1 win against Premier League Manchester City, helping holders Wigan to the semi-finals of the FA Cup for a consecutive season.[11]

Queens Park Rangers

On 31 July 2015, Perch signed for Championship side Queens Park Rangers on a three-year deal for an undisclosed fee.[12] Perch made his competitive QPR debut in the first game of the 2015-16 Championship Season which resulted in a 2–0 defeat against Charlton Athletic, he played the whole game.[13]

On 6 April 2018, it was announced that Perch would leave the club at the end of the 2017–18 season.[14]

Scunthorpe United

He joined Scunthorpe United in August 2018, signing a two-year contract.[15]

Mansfield Town

Perch signed for his hometown club Mansfield Town in August 2020.[16] He suffered a fractured skull in August 2021 that initially ruled him out of action for the 2021–22 season.[17] Perch made a return to training quicker than expected in January 2022,[18] and made his return to the starting line-up against Port Vale on 15 March.[19]

Ilkeston Town

On 8 September 2023, Perch signed for Northern Premier League Premier Division club Ilkeston Town.[20]

On 3 January 2025, Perch announced his retirement from playing football.[21]

International career

In October 2012, he was approached by the Jamaica Football Federation, who wanted Perch to play for Jamaica during their 2014 FIFA World Cup qualifying campaign.[citation needed] Perch is also eligible for Barbados through his father, who was born on the island.[22]
