ntupdate =Lewis Brett Guy (born
22 August ,1985 in Penrith,Cumbria ) is an English footballer who plays as astriker for Doncaster Rovers.Having started his career at Newcastle United, Guy joined Doncaster on loan during the 2004–05 season. Having impressed during his brief loan spell, scoring three goals in nine appearances (five from the bench), Guy signed a permanent deal with Dave Penney's side prior to the start of the 2005–06 season. He appeared for Newcastle once in the
UEFA Cup during his time onTyneside .Despite only scoring three goals in 31 league appearances throughout the 2005–06 season, Guy's pace and dribbling ability made him a handful for any defence, which helped him form an effective striking partnership with
Paul Heffernan during the first half of the season.Guy is well known for his ability to coax defenders into fouling him inside the penalty area. This has achieved many penalties for Doncaster in the past. However, his diving antics haven't always been popular with the Rovers faithful and he still remains a target for abuse from many supporters.
The 2007–08 season seems to have brought about a change however, as early season form has seen Guy rise to become one of Rovers best players. He also seems to have toned down the diving antics too, earning more adulation from fans.
His improved performances in the 2007/8 season earned him an extension to his contract which he signed in
July 2008 keeping him at Rovers until 2010.External links
