Town skipper David Norris has defended Roy Keane's management style in the wake of Jon Walters’s criticism earlier in the week. Walters, who joined Stoke in the summer after falling out with the Town boss, said Keane's players were always walking on “eggshells”.

Norris says he's happy working under the former Manchester United skipper: “I’ve never had a problem with the manager, and he’s been good to me particularly when I was injured for four months last season.

“I’m happy working for him and I enjoy being at Ipswich Town. And I’m looking forward to progressing with this club — and this manager.”

Chief executive Simon Clegg added: “Jon Walters was a great servant to the club but my focus is on supporting the manager and what the players deliver on the pitch.

“The spirit in the camp is good and that’s true, and we’re winning more games than last season. The results of this season speak louder than the words of a player who played last season.”
