THE CAPTAIN of Portsmouth Football Club was arrested for head butting a father of two at a Southampton nightspot, the Daily Echo can reveal.
Liam Lawrence was questioned by police officers after assaulting James Thorp who was enjoying a night out with friends at Cafe Parfait.
Mr Thorp was out with workmates and minding their drinks when he claims Lawrence walked past, picked one of them up and drank it before walking off.
When Mr Thorp asked him to pay for a replacement the Pompey skipper head butted the 28-year-old without warning â leaving him with a suspected broken nose, two black eyes and a cut lip.
Door staff immediately detained the Republic of Ireland international and called in the police who arrested Lawrence following the incident that happened just days before Saints played Portsmouth in a Championship clash.
