A fight in Peel's newest pub has cost two men nearly £2,000.

21-year-old James Gallagher of Roxwell Terrace and 33-year-old Steven John Kelly of Ballagyr Park, both of Peel, appeared before Deputy High Bailiff Rachael Braidwood at Douglas Courthouse.

Both admitted disorderly behaviour on licensed premises after prosecutors withdrew an allegation of affray.

The court heard the duo were involved in a brawl in Barbary Coast West on Close Beg in Peel on April 7.

Gallagher was fined £1,100 and banned from entering licensed premises for 12 months, while Kelly was fined £800 and banned from buying alcohol for six months.
