Ex-Barnsley player Nile Ranger faces trial for assault
Nile Ranger leaves Newcastle Magistrates' Court today
FORMER Barsley loan footballer Nile Ranger will face separate hearings on assault charges and for allegedly being drunk and disorderly.
The Newcastle United striker, 20, will face assault charges at Newcastle Crown Court on February 27, following a brief hearing at the city’s Magistrates’ Court.
His drunk and disorderly case was adjourned to be back before the magistrates for trial on March 21.
The north-London born footballer, who lives in Forest Hall, North Tyneside, was bailed on condition he stays outside central Newcastle’s “parking meter zone between 9pm and 7am”, the court heard.
Ranger’s loan deal with Championship side Barnsley earlier this season ended when he was injured playing for the South Yorkshire side.
Ranger who wore his hair in a knot, left court with a woman aged around 20 who wore grey trousers and a pale top.
