Remember it vividly. My ST was at the back of K-Stand looking straight down on it. Remember the blood being washed off the pitch. It was grim the poor sod. Gutted I couldn't make his testimonial, mainly due to Eric's announcement days later.
Didn't they have to get a bucket of water thrown onto that area of the pitch to wash away all the blood?? Will never forget it. Schmeichel nearly got sick. Busst's leg looked like a shark attack after all the multiple operations he needed. Horrific injury.
I was there for that, and unusually in the scoreboard end. I was also at the IMUSA meeting at the El Patio in Stretford where David was the invited guest and almost in tears when he was presented with a crystal cut glass ornament on behalf of United fans. Lovely gesture and very well received.

It was a horrible thing to witness, but even worse for the lad.
Is it gone yet ?
Busst had his sock down on the lap of honour.. his leg was barely there so weak and reduced.
