It was quite a season for James Perch as he re-established himself as a first team regular ... and also claimed the captaincy.

Perch had been disappointed to make just 19 starts during the 2007-08 season but it was a different story last term.

He clocked-up 41 starts and led the team with great maturity after being handed the armband by Billy Davies.

He was initially handed the job by interim boss John Pemberton following Colin Calderwood's departure and led Forest to back-to-back victories over Norwich and Manchester City.

But when Davies took over he resisted the temptation to make a change and Perch finally fulfilled a long-standing ambition by landing the job on a full-time basis.

A hugely versatile performer who is capable of playing at right back, in the centre of defence or in midfield, which is where he has played much of his football for The Reds at first team level.

Davies, however, views him as a defender and he's likely to find himself vying for a place at the back in future.

Although born in Mansfield, he was on Norwich City's books as a schoolboy before linking-up with the Forest Academy.

He made his debut in 2004 and is currently the club's second longest serving player behind Wes Morgan.
