Mark Stocks, mitigating, said Green had reached day three of an eight-day alcohol detox, which sees him breathalysed twice a day.
“For someone who has had an entrenched alcohol problem, this is some achievement,” said Mr Stocks.
“Let’s hope he has turned the corner.”
Green was fined £40 and ordered to pay costs of £85 and a £30 victim surcharge.
