The 42-year-old was convicted of attacking his wife at their home following a trial on Monday.
A former Hibs star attacked his partner by headbutting her to the face during a furious row over money. Colin Nish lashed out at Jennifer Murray when the pair clashed at the couple's family home in Musselburgh, East Lothian, earlier this year.
The 6ft 2" ex-striker, who played for the Easter Road club between 2008 and 2011, has now been banned from having any contact with the woman for the next 12 months. She told the court: "He said to me 'are you going to steal my money?' and I said 'yes'. He was in my face and then it happened. I didn't really know what had happened as I was on the floor so quickly."
Mrs Wilson, 65, told the court when she arrived at her daughter's house she found her "hysterical and crying" and that the following day they had taken pictures of the bruising to her face. He said the clash was accidental as Ms Murray had suddenly moved her head and his forehead had come into contact with her face.
