The Redcar boss had high praise for our new midfielder after an impressive debut.

Carl Jarrett hailed an ‘excellent’ debut performance from Callum Guy, the midfielder on the scoresheet in a 3-0 victory over then table-topping Boro Rangers.

The 25-year-old looked a threat from minute one through 89 – when he departed through injury – capping his stellar showing with a well-taken goal.

Signed from Newcastle Benfield on Friday afternoon, Callum Guy was thrown straight into the action at Green Lane, picked in the eleven to face Boro Rangers in an important Teesside derby.

The midfielder impressed Carl Jarrett with his skill, decision making and end product, forging a dangerous partnership with Adam Boyes, and lifting home a delicate third goal to see the Steelmen regain top spot.

Goals from Adam Boyes and Callum Guy settled the spoils in this top-of-the-table clash.

Quizzed about the impact Callum had on the side, the boss said: “I thought he was excellent.”

“Obviously, I’ve watched him a few times, Cal. I knew him before that, as he’s been at a number of different clubs.

“He’s always someone that looks really tidy on the ball. When we’re at home, and this pitch, it is a lovely ground for players like him to play on.

“I think he receives the ball really well, and he just looks so comfortable. He’s always got an eye for a pass.

“He’s had a fantastic debut today, and I’m really happy for him.

“He’s going to be a fantastic signing for us.”
