[edit] Club career

Forbes was born in Southwark, London in 1981 and began his career as a youth player at West Ham, featuring in their 1999 FA Youth Cup win.[1] However, he was unable to break into West Ham's first team, and after a loan spell with A.F.C. Bournemouth in 1999 where he made four league and cup appearances, he joined Queens Park Rangers on a free transfer in July 2001.[2] He quickly established himself in the first team, making 45 league and cup appearances in the 2001-02 season, 43 appearances in the 2002-03 season and 38 appearances in the 2003-04 season,[2] helping QPR to the Division 2 playoff final in May 2003, which they lost 1-0 to Cardiff after extra time, and to automatic promotion to Division 1 in May 2004 as runners-up in Division 2.[3][4] However, he was out of contract at the end of the 2003-04 season and was released by the club.[5]

Forbes joined Grimsby Town on a short-term contract in September 2004, which was later extended to the end of the season.[6] He made 34 league and cup appearances in the 2004-05 season for Grimsby but opted to leave Grimsby to play in a division higher with Oldham Athletic, signing a two-year contract with Oldham in May 2005.[2][7][8] He made 44 league and cup appearances for Oldham in the 2005-06 season before joining Yeovil Town in June 2006, on a two-year contract[2][9] He made 52 appearances for Yeovil in the 2006-07 season, as Yeovil reached the League One playoff final in May 2007, losing 2-0 to Blackpool.[2][10]
