Skels, whose address was given in court papers as Victoria Road, Peterhead, admitted pushing a man to the body causing him to fall and strike his head, to his severe injury.
Sheriff Graham Buchanan said: “It seems the action was not serious, but the consequence was.”
The court heard Skels mistakenly thought the complainer, who has since fully recovered, had harassed his wife in the club and was sorry for his actions.
He was fined £400.
