Gerald Perryman (born 3 October 1947) is an English former footballer who played in the Football League as a full-back for Northampton Town and Colchester United.
Career[edit]
Born in West Haddon, Perryman signed professional terms with Northampton Town in September 1966, making just one league appearance at the County Ground.[2][3] He moved to Colchester United in the summer of 1968, and made only two league appearances for the U's,[4] his debut a 5–1 defeat to Chester at Sealand Road on 24 August 1968 as a substitute for Dennis Mochan.[5] He made his final league appearance in the following game, again standing in for Mochan in a 4–0 defeat by Scunthorpe United at Layer Road.[2] His final game for the club was a League Cup defeat to Workington on 4 September.[6] Unimpressed by the squad he had inherited since joining in the summer, manager Dick Graham took drastic action, axing a number of players, Perryman included. Perryman would later represent non-league sides Corby Town and Rushden Town.[2]
