Terrell Forbes (born August 17, 1981 in Southwark, London) is a footballer who plays for Yeovil.

He is a former West Ham junior, featuring in their 1999 FA Youth Cup win. However, he couldn't break into West Ham's first team, and after a brief loan spell with AFC Bournemouth, he joined Queen's Park Rangers. He spent three years there, helping the club get promoted to Division 1 in 2004, but was released in September of the same year. Following a year at Grimsby Town, he moved to Oldham in summer 2005, but had his contract terminated after a poor season and was then signed by Yeovil.

[edit] Rape accusation

Forbes was accused of rape of a teenage girl in 2004 along with five other men.The defender claimed not guilty to rape, but admitted having consensual sexual intercourse^[1]. After a lengthy case that cast a shadow over the 24 year old's career, Forbes was cleared at Kingston Crown Court. Judge Michael Hucker said the 15-year-old's evidence had a "basic and inherent weakness" and described it as "seriously inconsistent", but also described events in the flat as "wholly disgraceful".^[2]
