Sounds like he did something unwise in the heat of the moment, and a custodial sentence seems inevitable but harsh.
However, he really used to annoy me on the Midlands news. He stumbled over words and got things wrong all the time. I won't be disappointed that he'll be permanently off my screen.

The guy is a prize penis.
Full of front, always on the beers looking to push people into situations where he can shout "Don't you know who I am!".
Some mates and I had a run in with him a few years ago at another friend's nightclub in Birmingham; he's a plastic gangster of the highest order.
His fronting seems to have got him into trouble this time.
Oh how I laughed when I saw his sad little face walking into court!
Tit.

I live 5 minutes walk away from THE PLACE 2B and have heard a few similar stories of him being a knob. But I have heard a few good stories too. So he is only half badFull of front, always on the beers looking to push people into situations where he can shout "Don't you know who I am!".

BBC man sacked after conviction
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/west_midlands/8...
A BBC presenter who hit a teenager with a wooden pole has been sacked.
A crown court judge has told Ashley Blake, 40, who presented Midlands Today, it was "almost inevitable" he would be jailed.
He denied the attack outside a bar in Sutton Coldfield, Birmingham, but was convicted of wounding and attempting to pervert the course of justice.
A BBC spokesman said on Thursday that Blake had been dismissed with immediate effect.
The spokesman said: "Ashley Blake was found guilty last week of two serious charges.
"An internal process has resulted in Ashley's dismissal which is effective immediately."
Blake, who also presented Inside Out, denied attacking Greg Jones, 17, outside the bar in January.
Blake told Birmingham Crown Court he used the pole as a "bat" to deflect bottles and other missiles thrown at him by up to 30 people.
He had been arrested at the scene and, when interviewed by police, denied wielding the pole.
He changed his story when shown CCTV footage of him fetching the pole from behind the bar.
Speaking after the trial ended on 3 August, he said: "(I am) just gutted, absolutely gutted... it's all over, isn't it? My job - everything."
Blake, who was remanded on bail, will be sentenced on 2 September.

I only realised today that the lad he hit was only 17!
17FFS!
What sort of 40 year old man commits an act such as this?
I've met some pretty unpleasant 17 year olds in Brum.17FFS!

But really, would you feel threatened by any 17 year old at your own nightclub, with presumably, your loyal door-soldiers on hand?
I struggle to see 17 year olds as anything other than kids; sometimes I forget that I'm 6'4 and 17 stone with a few fancy moves up my sleeve
I still think he's a prize tit though....

When they have knives or guns even it doesn't matter how big you are other than you would need a bigger coffin...Maybe, maybe not.
Hopefully not
