No10 - RICHARD WRIGHT
Missed Everton's FA Cup 4th-round replay at Chelsea in 2006 after falling over a notice warning him not to practise in the goalmouth.
No9 - MARK CAVENDISH
The British cycling star was sidlined after playing a snowboarding game on his Nintento Wii.
Cavendish suffered a calf injury when he slipped off the Wii Balance Board.
No8 - ALAN WRIGHT
The vertically challenged defender strained a knee struggling to reach the accelerator on his new Ferrari.
No7 - DAVE BEASANT
The veteran keeper was KO'd for eight weeks in 1993 when he dropped a bottle of salad cream on his foot.
No6 - GUS FEROTTE
The Washington Redskins quarterback was taken to the hospital after celebrating a touchdown with a bit too much gusto.
Ferotte suffered a jammed neck by head-butting the concrete end zone.
No5 - DARREN BARNARD
The former Barnsley midfielder tore a knee ligament after he slipped on his kitchen floor after stepping in a puddle of his puppy's urine in the 1990s.
No4 - CHRIS LEWIS
Lewis was labelled "The Prat without a Hat" by our good selves — after he was struck down with sunstroke.
The fast bowler had shaved his head before the 1994 tour to West Indies and subsequently missed the first match.
No3 - COLIN SMART
Smart by name, but less so by nature.
The England prop was celebrating a Five Nations win over France in 1982 when he was duped into drinking a bottle of aftershave by a team-mate.
The burly forward needed his stomach pumped, with scrum-half Steve Smith joking: "Colin was in a bad way, but his breath smelled lovely."
No2 - STEVE MORROW
Broke his collarbone after falling off Tony Adams' shoulders while celebrating Arsenal's 1993 League Cup final win against Sheffield Wednesday.
No1 - BRUCE FRENCH
This injury, or string of injuries, wouldn't look out of place in a Charlie Chaplin film.
The England wicketkeeper was on tour in Pakistan when he was struck on the head with a cricket ball which had been thrown by a fan during a net session.
So far, not bad. But jinxed French was then struck by a car on his way to hospital,.
And after getting the initial knock stitched up, French promptly stood up and cracked his head on a light fitting.
