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.[2] He made over 200 appearances for Forest before moving to newly promoted Newcastle United.

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.[8] Perch made his league debut for Wigan on 3 August 2013, in a 4–0 away victory over Barnsley.[9] 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 the second year in a row.[10]

On 31 July 2015, Perch signed for Championship side Queens Park Rangers on a three-year deal for an undisclosed fee.[11] 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.[12]
