A brawl at the Richmond Inn pub left the landlord and his friend assaulted after he refused to serve a group of people.
The 57 year old landlord of the pub in Portswood high street refused to serve a group of men and women and was repeatedly punched in the face by one of the women.
A man from the group then grabbed the landlord’s throat and pushed him across the room, breaking a table. The man then held him down while the woman and another man repeatedly kicked and punched him.
The landlord’s friend, a 62 year old man, stepped in to aid him but was also attacked. He was punched and received serious facial injuries. The landlord had many areas of bruising, and the assault aggravated an old back injury. The second victim received an open break to his right cheek bone. It is believed he will need surgery.
The incident occurred at around 11pm on Saturday 26th October.

The woman is described as in her late thirties or early forties. She is 5ft 2-3ins tall and very slim. She had loose black hair which is described as straight and shoulder length. She was tanned, wore a lot of make up and was wearing an animal or leopard print short sleeved blouse, blue denim jeans and Chelsea-type boots.
This was a rare incident in a busy and popular pub. Numerous people are believed to have been in the pub at the time of the assaults. They could not help but see what happened. I need to hear from anyone who can identify those involved.
