About David Busst

David John Busst ( BYOOST; born 30 June 1967) is an English football manager and former professional player who played as a centre-back from 1992 until 1996. Having started his career with non-League Moor Green, he moved to Premier League side Coventry City in 1992. Having made over 50 appearances for the Sky Blues, he suffered a broken leg during a match with Manchester United in 1996 which ended his career. His injury is often considered the worst in the history of the Premier League. He moved into management following his retirement with Solihull Borough in 2001, and later took charge of Evesham United. He came out of retirement in 2008 as defensive cover for Highgate United. Just weeks before his retirement, Busst had been hoping to return to training the following spring and be ready for first team action by the start of the 1997–98 season. Since his retirement, Busst has worked for Coventry's backroom staff, working for their Football in the Community programme, of which he became director.
