There are always shocking moments in the English Premiership League. Some of them have been captured below.
David Busst injury

The English Premiership League is yet to see such horrific injury that led Man U keeper Peter Schmeichel vomit on the pitch. That was the end of Busst’s playing career but he served with Coventry City as Director of Football.
Kieron Dyer & Lee Bowyer fight on the pitch
Both players fought during Newcastle’s 3-0 defeat at Aston Villa in 2005. Later, they appeared after the game with manager Graeme Souness in a press conference where they apologized for their behavior but obviously did not apologize to each other.
Robbie Fowler white line celebration
After scoring for Liverpool in the Merseyside derby against Everton, Fowler used the white line of the penalty area to simulate snorting cocaine as his goal celebration. This was in reference to the accusations of drug abuse from a faction of Everton fans. Fowler ended up with a £60,000 club fine and a 4 match ban for his antics.
Adebayor goal celebration
