A pub chef has been fined £550 after admitting disorderly behaviour on licensed premises.

Matthew James Patrick Wilson, of North Quay, Douglas, was also ordered to pay £120 compensation to police after he urinated on a cell door.

Prosecutor Roger Kane told the court how, on December 14 at 2.22am, police were on patrol near Bordellos on Loch Promenade when they saw Wilson struggling with door staff outside the bar.

Wilson, aged 20, was said to have been escorted out of the bar but had punched a glass door on the way out.

He was being restrained on the ground by the door staff and was subsequently arrested.

Once in police custody Wilson was said to have urinated on his cell door.

Mr Kane said that it had been confirmed that the disorderly behaviour had occurred outside Bordellos but in an area by benches which was classed as part of the licensed premises.

Defence advocate James Peterson handed in a character reference for his client.

The advocate said: ’Mr Wilson had finished work as a chef at the British.

’He had gone to the bar in the British then went to the Prospect continuing drinking.

’He was on his own but is friendly with bar staff at both pubs. He doesn’t recall what happened at Bordellos.

’He doesn’t remember but deeply regretted his actions when informed by police what happened.

’The following day he went to Bordellos and apologised for his behaviour and apologised to police for what he did to the cell.’

Mr Peterson went on to say that his client had paid Bordellos for the damage he caused to a glass door there.

The court heard that Wilson has no previous convictions.

’I would submit this was a blip and not one that Mr Wilson will repeat,’ said his advocate.

Deputy High Bailiff Jayne Hughes gave Wilson credit for the steps he had taken after the incident.

She said: ’Your behaviour was appalling.

’You have no recollection of it clearly because you’d consumed too much alcohol. Take great care when you are drinking in future.’

Wilson was fined £350 for being drunk and disorderly and £200 for property damage.

He must also pay £125 prosecution costs.
