Arsenal season-ticket holder accused of headbutting Man Utd legend Roy Keane pleads not guilty to assault

The incident occurred on September 3 last year following Arsenal's 3-1 victory against Manchester United at the Emirates Stadium, where former Ireland international Keane had been working as a pundit. Social media footage seems to capture Keane's fellow Sky Sports pundit Micah Richards intervening during an apparent altercation.

According to The Daily Mail, Magistrates' Chair Amanda Gibbon told Law and his entourage: "You have pleaded not guilty to this charge. We have been making arrangements for your trial. Currently, it's scheduled to take place for two days. It will be on May 29 and 30 in this courthouse. We are going to release you on unconditional bail."

When 43-year-old Scott Law appeared at Highbury Magistrates' Court in north London on Thursday, he entered a not-guilty plea to a charge of common assault. In anticipation of his two-day trial scheduled for May 29 at the same court, he was freed on unconditional bail.

Both Law and Keane will have to be present when the proceedings take place at Highbury Magistrates' Court on May 29.
