    From Wiki:

    Best joined Ipswich Town on 30 August 2016 as a replacement for Daryl Murphy.[29] He struggled to keep his place in the team, and following his performance on 17 January 2017 in an FA Cup tie against non-league Lincoln City, where Ipswich were beaten 1–0,[30] Mick McCarthy stated that Best would never play for Ipswich Town again. “I told him after the Lincoln game that he is not part of my plans here. He’s still with us and may have to have something done with his groin. We will see but he won’t be playing for us.”[31] Best was one of seven players released by Ipswich Town at the end of the 2016−17 season.[32]

    Hasn't had a preseason or played this season. Good company for Reeves at the training ground I guess.

    When Mick says 'he may have to have something done with his groin' I assume Best was so useless he needed a kick in the balls.
  • A little birdy tells me that an out of contract player (last club Ipswich Town) will be joining the club on Monday. If so, is it Leon Best??

    Are we finally getting James Scowcroft?

    That is Arnold Muhren.
    No, definitely a screenshot
  • Is that definitely a player? He doesn't look especially athletic...

    That's not Joe Robinson.

    And I'm pretty sure it's not Leon Best...

    Leon Best is taller than him!

    Cameron Stewart also fits the description.
  • Ben Stokes hoping to stay fit whilst unavailable for the cricket

    No it can't be Stokes's he's doing a Rio and looking to go into boxing after his performance in Bristol

    could be Robinson .. but at 5'9" he's certainly not a central defender

    if the rumour is true, and given our 'lack of forward power' it could well be Best, a player who's so lazy he makes Marcus Bent look like a workaholic

    Mick McCarthy is such a bellend. "He'll never play for us again... But oh he might have been injured."

    Maybe that's why he wasn't any good then Mick?

    Also, Best had a couple decent years in the Championship. Not the most exciting prospect but wouldn't be a terrible punt.

    Could be, if he brings the chair.

    So.
    We started planning for this last March did we?
    Who'd have thought that players could get injured...or suspended or lose form?

    At 5' 9" he would fit the very,very, small squad.....
  • Was Sir Gobby seen at his wedding reception ?
  • Looks a bit like Stephen Quinn of Reading.
    If it is, then good signing, run the game against us when he played for Sheff U a few seasons back.

    Looks more like ‘professor green’ than any footballer!

    forgotten about him .. he seems to have disappeared .. as you write, a VERY good player a few seasons back
  • Quinn would be good but he said his name is joe so pretty sure that rules him out.the bloke in the screenshot is probably just a member of staff

    He's a winger. Lots to young for him

    @DONVANVLIET great username. If I could change my username, I'd probably chose something Beefheart related. Possibly The Spotlight Kid or something. :smile:

    Joe, our academy kit man
    Thanks Olly, he was THAT close to be a Charlton player too.

    So Leon Best, whatcha reckon? : - )

    However he had a few good games (only a few) for Newcastle back when .. but inherently he is lazy ..
    last time I saw him play live was when we beat Wednesday in the cup
    .. he was anonymous ..
    he's a hot n cold player .. 10% of the time hot , 90% cold .. NOT for me not even to sit on the bench in case of a Magennis injury

    You can be sure that he's been carefully scouted by Robbo, who has persuaded Roland to push the boat out to get his man!
  • If we're playing Ipswich on Tuesday I wonder which team he'll line up for ;)
