A Peel man has been sentenced to community service after being thrown out of a golf club.

Ashley Alexander Convery, of School Close, struggled with bouncers during a night out at the Peel club and had to be put in a headlock.

He admitted disorderly behaviour on licensed premises and was ordered to do 60 hours of unpaid work by High Bailiff Jayne Hughes.

We previously reported that Convery was out with his family and girlfriend at a music event at Peel Golf Club on December 29 last year.

He argued with his girlfriend and followed her to the toilet.

As he waited outside the toilet he was asked by a doorman to move away but swore at him, telling them where to go.

Flailing

Convery continued swearing as the door man attempted to move him away from the toilets.

A second doorman intervened and Convery was ejected from the golf club.

When interviewed by police, Convery said he that he had drunk 12 bottles and emotions had got the better of him after the row with his girlfriend.

The court heard that he has no previous convictions and no complaint had been made by the door staff.

Convery entered a basis of plea which was accepted by the prosecution in which he said that he had ’slapped out’ rather than punched a doorman and that he had not grabbed him by the throat, as had previously been said.

He accepted that he had been flailing his arms and had struck one doorman on the top of the head.

Defence advocate Stephen Wood said: ’This could and should have been a pleasant night out with family members. But it’s turned into something abhorrent.

’Mr Convery is not a man of previous convictions. Quite why he’s behaved in the way he has is unexplainable.

Puce

’Witnesses have described him as going "puce" as a result of being put in a headlock and dragged into the car park.

’Security staff aren’t responsible for that. He put them in that position, but it was a frightening experience.

’He informs me that since this incident he has significantly addressed his alcohol consumption. He doesn’t stay out late.’

Mr Wood went on to ask the court to treat the incident as a ’one-off’.

’He has been into Peel Golf Club and apologised to the landlady there,’ said the advocate. ’He is allowed back on the premises.’

Mrs Hughes also ordered Convery to pay £125 prosecution costs.
