Perkins finally gets started
04 Sep 2008 - 11:17:50
Colchester United new boy Dave Perkins is delighted to have got his U's career up and running with a goal in the 1-0 Johnstone's Paint Trophy victory at Millwall.
The 32-year-old had to complete a five-match suspension before being able to play for his new club, but Perkins made up for lost time by impressing on his first start against the Lions.
He told the Evening News: "I had to get my head around the suspension, because all I wanted to do was play, but I managed to do that.
"I made a couple of appearances as a substitute, although that was on the left wing, which isn't my favourite position. I had to do a job for the team.
"I'm happier in central midfield. That is my natural position and I'm obviously pleased to score on my full debut for the team."
