M_Porter Posted September 10, 2016 Report Share Posted September 10, 2016 Just a quick one for who ever is interested, Buster is doing good I've just had the pleasure of playing skittles against him ( it didn't end well for him). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slacker Posted September 10, 2016 Report Share Posted September 10, 2016 Glad to hear Buster is on the up.Surely "the t shirt" needs to go in the proposed City Museum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As it was an indoor event and very warm Buster was wearing a coat, hat and gloves. He only goes out in a t shirt when it is minus 2 or colder.

Steve Watts Posted September 10, 2016 Report Share Posted September 10, 2016 For the remainder of the shit storm that has been 2016, can we stop creating threads with just names? Especially after Welchy the other day, my heart went over when I saw a thread with Buster's name on! Can we start adding "(Alive & Well)" to the end, please?!? Never know what I'm about to open! Having said that, I don't think Buster will ever go...Death will come for him, take one look and then back away quietly in absolute terror!

TrowVegasCidered Posted September 10, 2016 Report Share Posted September 10, 2016 Buster - has he not been well? Hope -all is well. City growing up for me. He was quick across the pitch with that magic bag! Always remember one game, a fan shouted out "buster footman you bold headed c@@t" . In the most affectionate way possible - but a bizarre greating! Good luck buster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bar BS3 Posted September 10, 2016 Report Share Posted September 10, 2016 This will mean nothing to everyone else, but as a 14 year old I got myself a summer job at Ashton Gate, working with the ground staff, cleaning the seats, painting things etc. Until that age I always suffered occasionall but awful crippling pains in my left foot, due to an operation I had as a 2 year old. Whilst working there one day my foot flared up, I could hardly even stand and had tears in my eyes with the pain, as I had become used to suffering with on an almost monthly basis. Anyway, Buster Footman saw my distress and pain, took me into the players treatment room and used a laser gun on the problematic nerve on the top of my foot. He spent half an hour massaging it with this laser. I shit you not, my foot has never flared up again since and I'll always be SO grateful to Buster for his kindness that day and the pain that he's spared me throughout my life since. Thank you buster! You are a top top man! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can remember listenning to a game on the car radio a cold winter Tuesday somewhere up north. Alan Green's reaction was the same as he commented on Buster "FUTE" man in Alan's strong Irish brogue. Don't think he could believe his eyes as he said he was well wrapped up in the commentary box. 34 minutes ago, pride of the west said: No I reckon it's 88-89 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
