That's It: Liverpool skipper Steven Gerrard as a boxer. IMAGING/SATISH ACHARYA |
The Liverpool Crown Court heard from barman Nathaniel Lockie who relived the attack and claimed Gerrard was in a "huff" after not getting his own way. He said: "Gerrard grabbed the back of his jumper and pulled it over his head, pulled him down and started uppercutting him. While that happened I ran round to the other side of the bar trying to help and he (Gerrard) was dragged off into the restaurant." McGee, 34, said when he refused to hand over control of the music Gerrard asked him: "Who the f*** do you think you are?" He said of the attack several minutes later: "I remember a barrage of punches coming in at my face but I didn't know who has done what. Having watched the CCTV it was obvious Steven Gerrard hit me a couple of times."
Mr McGee lost a front tooth crown and suffered a cut face. Gerrard's police interviews end with his solicitor, Richard Green, saying the star was "deeply apologetic" about what happened.
