A teacher admitted having five pints of Stella before getting behind the wheel at a Northumberland football club.
Connor Smith was spotted by security getting into his BMW 1 Series in the car park at Ashington Community Football Club in the early hours of the morning and starting to reverse. A court heard, however, that the 28-year-old was prevented from leaving by security and the police were called.
Officers attended and spoke to Smith. He was arrested after failing a roadside breath test and later gave a reading of 109mcg of alcohol in 100ml of breath when the legal limit is just 35mcg.
