She said Mr Davies tried to guide Morgan to the bottom of the stairs but he slipped, and as he got up he turned and threw the two punches, but one missed.
Mr Davies was left with a sore nose after the attack.
Alex Scott, representing Morgan, said: "He was asked to leave and thought the man had tried to throw him down the stairs, but he now accepts what has been outlined by the prosecution."
Morgan was fined £100, told to pay £85 in costs and a £20 victim surcharge and £50 in compensation.

“Sorry, Neathboy but I lived in France for quite some time and I can assure you that drunken French people ( men and women) can get very aggressive. This is not a British thing - it happens wherever people and alcohol mix in large quantities.”

“Nothing worse that a man who become aggressive in drink. For the past 20 odd years I've visited my wife's family in France on many occasions. I've seen lots of drunken Frenchmen, but rarely have i seen any trouble. The more wine the French drink the more they laugh, and yes I've been in bars every bit as crowded as anyone in wind street”
