Injury?
On an English football pitch?
I'd say the bloke on fire at Bradford was worse than Busst?
Reckon 96 Scousers might have a claim for the title too

Just read this description of Malarchuk's injury on Wiki, fuck my old boots:
During a game on March 22, 1989, between the visiting St. Louis Blues and Malarchuk's Buffalo Sabres, Steve Tuttle of the Blues and Uwe Krupp of the Sabres became entangled while chasing the puck and crashed hard into the Buffalo goal, taking Malarchuk down with them. As Tuttle and Krupp came down on him, Tuttle's skate blade hit Malarchuk's neck and severed his carotid artery.[2]
With blood spurting from Malarchuk's throat onto the ice, he was able to leave the ice on his own feet with the assistance of his team's athletic trainer, Jim Pizzutelli.[3] Many spectators were physically sickened by the sight.[4] There were reports that eleven fans fainted, two more suffered heart attacks and three players vomited on the ice

The nilis one barely ever gets mentioned but it was awful. It was such a nothing challenge too, just jumping over the keeper. Terrible

Not English pitch but English by name. John Thomson RIP February 1930, Thomson was seriously injured in a game against Airdrieonians. He broke his jaw, fractured several ribs, damaged his collar bone, and lost two teeth when making a diving save.
On 5 September 1931, Celtic were playing their Old Firm rivals Rangers at Ibrox Park in Glasgow in front of 80,000. Early in the second half Thomson and a Rangers player, Sam English, went for the ball at the same time. Thomson's head collided with English's knee, fracturing his skull and rupturing an artery in his right temple. Thomson was taken off the field in a stretcher; most people assumed that he was just badly concussed, but a few people who had seen his injuries suspected worse. One source said, "There were gasps in the main stand, a single piercing scream being heard from a horrified young woman"; this was believed to be the scream of 19-year-old Margaret Finlay, who was watching with Jim Thomson (brother of John). One Rangers player, also a medical student, said later that as soon as he saw him he gave little chance for his survival.
After having treatment from the St Andrew's Ambulance Association, he was taken to a stretcher. According to The Scotsman he was "seen to rise on the stretcher and look towards the goal and the spot where the accident happened". The game ended 0–0. Thomson was taken to the Victoria Infirmary in Glasgow.[4] He had a lacerated wound over the right parietal bones of the skull, which meant that there was a depression in his skull of 2 inches in diameter. At 5pm he suffered a major convulsion. Dr Norman Davidson carried out an emergency operation to try and lower the amount of pressure caused by the swelling brain, but the operation was unsuccessful and he was pronounced dead by 9.25pm.

Djibril Cisse and Henrik Larsson - both shockers. A foot flapping around in the wind below the knee is always unpleasant, especially from something innocuous.

Was sat just behind Shaka when he collided with Casiraghi. Seemed nothing at the time then could hear the screams of agony by Casiraghi. He retired after that.
