How about players you remember playing for us that actually didn't!
In all my years supporting Town I have never had this, but was absolutely convinced yesterday that Elokobi played a handful of games for us in the early 2010's.
Obviously he never did and he was always a player I liked for opposition teams, but around that 5 year period or so that for me has melded together of Aaron McLean, Keith Andrews, Ben Thatcher, Ibrahima Sonko, DJ Campball, Ivar Ingamarsson, Bilel Moshni, Arron Lee-Barrett etc, I could have sworn Elokobi played a few times.
Never happened to me before. Even weirder as a season ticket holder of 35+ years so it's not like I wouldn't have seen him in action. Age catching up with me I guess lol. Anyone else initially thought someone played for us only to find they didn't? |  | | |  |

That's pretty weird, as I thought the same. I'm sure he came here on a really short term loan. Kind of Kisnorbo vibes, played a handful and fooked off.
Seems not, maybe the Wolves link playing tricks as he screams McCarthy signing. |  | | |

Good. Glad I am not totally losing it if someone else has the same memory.
Hopefully Phil will come to the rescue and say he was training with us for a few weeks and we decided not to sign him or something and I can feel even more relieved! | | | |

Recently regaling a story of when Eddie Howe played a handful of games for us on loan in the '90s, when in fact it was Bobby Howe.  |  | | |

He played for us.
Him and Kachloul were a great Town partnership. Right up until Claus Jensen came in and broke up the pair. | | | |

David Nugent surely came on loan for at least a month in his twilight years after we were after him for a decade?? |  | | |

He did. Loan terminated after he scored 7 goals against us in 4 Portman Road appearances. | | | |

Was that before or after Batistuta? |  |

He was linked with us under Mick, as were all his Wolves players at some point, but sorry to disappoint you, I can't recall him ever spending time here. |  | | |

I had the same initial thinking as well, but it was Stearman I was thinking of. |  |

I once won a tenner on the way back from an away match from a group of lads convinced that Leroy Lita once played for us. |  | | |

Leroy Lita did play for us to be fair, as a trialist. Scored the winner against Braintree for an 'Ipswich XI' back in 2014. |  | | |

 Lita on Target as Town Win at Braintree 22nd Jul 2014 21:42Striker Leroy Lita, one of six trialists in the starting line-up, netted the only goal as a Blues XI beat Skrill Premier side Braintree Town 1-0 in Brad Quinton’s testimonial at Cressing Road. Lita, 29, a free agent following his release by Swansea, followed up after Iron keeper Nathan McDonald had failed to hold on to a freekick from another trialist, French-Mauritian midfielder Kévin Bru, nine minutes before the break.  30

I thought Keith Fahey played for us at some stage under Mick when we used to loan a crap former Ireland international for a few months every season, but when I looked him up once he never had.
In fact he never played for anybody in this country besides Birmingham |  |

You're probably confusing him with Kevin Foley. Easily done. |  | | |

Amazing that is was Kévin Bru who'd go on to have a semi decent career here.
Leeroy Lita, had about three good seasons his whole career and was below average for everything after, although I wish we'd have signed him instead of Sam Parkin! He ended up replacing Nicky Forster at Reading and firing them to promotion though... | | | |
