He could not bite properly, he had loose teeth and his mouth was filled with blood. Bennett, of Lower Ash Road, Kidsgrove, pleaded guilty to inflicting grievous bodily harm. Lesley Barnett, mitigating, said Bennett was grateful that his victim was able to return to playing football in January last year.
Miss Barnett said there is a realistic prospect of Bennett being rehabilitated. He is willing to pay compensation to his victim which he would not be able to do if sent to jail. She added: "He expresses a great deal of remorse for the position he put the complainant in. He never wants anything like that to happen again."
