This was also Town’s first double over their Norfolk neighbours in 33 years, having beaten them earlier in the season at Portman Road.
Walsh ran onto the pitch during the celebrations between the fans and the players and was seen hugging midfielder Azor Matusiwa before being pushed away by Leif Davis and stewards taking him out of the stadium.
He was bailed and is to appear at Norwich Magistrates’ Court on June 11, 2026.
