In the past few days, there were allegations that Jersey rugby players were attacked after their Siam Cup Victory in Guernsey on Sunday. There were also angry scenes at a tempestuous under-16 Upton football final on Saturday.
With an estimated 2,000 fans expected at Springfield for Saturday’s game, Mr Welsh said that supporters should enjoy the occasion but not cross the line.
‘There has always been banter and as a youngster I was part of that, standing behind the goal during Muratti games,’ he said. ‘But there’s a big difference between that and nastiness. Fans should have some fun but should not cause trouble. I hope they will all have a good day out.’
