His claims that he had used 'excessive self-defence' were rejected, with the attack branded 'impulsive, spontaneous and short-lived'.
Colin Robson, aged 33, of Lodge Court, in Donnington, appeared at Shrewsbury Crown Court on Monday for sentencing on charges of actual bodily harm and criminal damage, nearly three years after incidents on January 25, 2020.
The court was told that Mr McPherson had received head injuries and cuts during a fight in a back garden. The judge was told that he had been carrying a spanner. The court was also told that Robson's family relationships, through his girlfriend, had been damaged and he had been isolated from his two-year-old child. Members of the family had to"pick sides" following the incident after which he had been labelled a criminal.
