POLICE say they are stepping-up patrols at Bournemouth's Victoria Park, following reports of antisocial behaviour from local youths.
Neighbourhood officers from Bournemouth North policing team have also posted pictures of the mess left in the seating area of Bournemouth FC's ground.
Bournemouth FC – The Poppies – have been based at Victoria Park, Namu Road, Winton, since 1890.
Police said: "I'm sure that you can agree the level of mess left in the seating area at the club is disgraceful.
"Officers found large quantities of broken glass and evidence of drug taking.
"Signs have now been put up to highlight our increased involvement and we are appealing to the public to report all antisocial behaviour in this area.
"Please report incidents of a non urgent nature to 101@dorset.pnn.police.uk
"If life is in danger or there is a crime in progress, for example criminal damage, then please call 999."
