Snoozing Best snubs soccer exhibition
Football legend George Best today delivered an embarrassing snub to the game’s governing body when he failed to turn up to open a centenary exhibition.
The former Northern Ireland and Manchester United star was said to be asleep in bed when he was due to perform duties at the FIFA display at London’s Royal Academy of Arts, which features dramatic photographs of some of the greatest living players.
