21:02:08: Not guilty plea over 'bottling'
The 21-year-old footballer pleaded not guilty to assaulting Greg Smith, causing him actual bodily harm, outside the Candy Store nightclub on the night of November 11, 2007.
Ebanks-Blake, who was bought from Manchester United in July 2006 and sold last month by Argyle to Wolverhampton Wanderers for £1.5million, also faces a public order offence of threatening unlawful violence.
A 37-year-old man, believed to be a doorman, had suffered a two to three inch cut to his head in the alleged incident.
The player, who was represented by his solicitor John Fletcher, was told by magistrates that his case would be sent to crown court in Plymouth for trial.
He was given unconditional bail to return to the magistrates court on April 11 for committal proceedings.
Ebanks-Blake was arrested on November 11 after Argyle’s 3-0 Championship victory over Norwich City at Home Park.
