Movie tough guy Vinnie Jones' assault trial has been delayed again - the former soccer star will have to wait another two days to hear what punishment he's likely to get following a December (08) bar brawl in South Dakota.

Jones was charged with three counts of assault following the bloody fight in a Sioux Falls bar, which left him with 48 stitches in his face.

He was due in court in Minnehaha County, South Dakota on Monday (23Feb09), but the hearing has been rescheduled to Wednesday (25Feb09).

This has been very expensive

The Snatch star isn't expected to appear in court.

Justin Barrera, Jones' fighting foe in the brawl, was arrested on drug charges earlier this month (Feb09).

Barrera reportedly smashed a glass in Jones' face.

Meanwhile, the actor is hoping to sell the story of his bar fight to help him cover mounting legal expenses connected to the case.

A spokesman for Jones says, "This has been very expensive".
