Bruce On Bywater Arrival

Ten months ago Stephen Bywater and Alex Bruce had to be kept apart after very nearly coming to blows when Derby visited Portman Road last April, but Bruce says that is water under the bridge.

Bruce: "There was a picture of our confrontation pinned by my peg in our training ground changing room last Thursday - the day that Stephen arrived.

"And written in big letters was 'Round Two'.

"It is typical of the banter that exists in our dressing room, and it broke any ice there might have been.

"Stephen is a great lad, and tempers boiled over on both sides last season when they shouldn't have done. But I think it shows we both like to be winners."
