He did enter guilty pleas to breaking a glass and taking her mobile on the second occasion.

A trial will take place at Wigan Magistrates' Court on November 24

And he also also changed a previous not guilty plea of stealing a £40 electric razor from Boots on April 10.

He will be sentenced for those offences after the trial takes place at the same court on November 24, before which Clough is remanded in custody.
