#1 – Horrific Leg Snap
The career of Coventry defender David Busst ended dramatically on 8th April 1996 in a game against Manchester United. He snapped his lower right tibia, breaking both bones, when he collided with Manchester United players Dennis Irwin and Brian McClair. In the aftermath, his blood had to be cleaned off the pitch and Manchester United goalkeeper Peter Schmeichel vomited at the sight. Several players had to undergo counselling as a result of what they saw. Needless to say, Busst never played again, only narrowly avoiding amputation. Some might say he was lucky but on this evidence, we’re not so sure!
