A THUG left a woman badly hurt after being knocked back from a party.
Joseph Ewing flew into a rage and shoved Antonia Lee to the ground in August 2017.
The 28 year-old cakemaker broke her wrist, dislocated her elbow and also suffered nerve damage.
Miss Lee was off work for 12 weeks and needed intense physiotherapy after her ordeal in Glasgow's Carnwadric area.
Ewing now faces jail after he today admitted to the attack.

The 25 year-old pleaded guilty to assaulting Miss Lee to her severe injury and permanent impairment.
Ewing had his bail continued meantime at Glasgow Sheriff Court.
The thug struck as Miss Lee and brother in law Andrew Downie - who Ewing knew - were walking in the street.
The pair ignored him, but fiscal Lauren McRobert said: "He grabbed Miss Lee’s arm and pulled her causing her to fall.
“She struck her right elbow. Mr Downie managed to pushed Ewing away."
Injured Miss Lee got up before she and Mr Downie fled to his mum's home.
Ewing tailed them and was then clocked brandishing what was described as a bird feeding pole.

He ran off before police turned up - but he was snared when officers heard him in a nearby garden.
Ewing then tried to spit at one constable.
The court heard Miss Lee continues to suffer from pain and anxiety as a result of what happened.
Garvey McArdle, defending, said Ewing believed he was invited to a house party.
He added: “Mr Ewing said Mr Downie had asked him but apparently that had changed.”
Sheriff Martin Jones QC deferred sentencing for reports.
