Boyce tips Bramble for England

Bramble, who was signed two seasons ago on a free transfer from now relegated Newcastle has been in inspired form this season and was voted the club's player of the season by both supporters and his fellow players.

This has led for Boyce to add to the growing list of admirers for Bramble, who is now being tipped to turn around his error-prone reputation and win a place in the England side.

Boyce said: "I think Titus has answered his critics well this season. He has shown great character. Titus is playing with confidence and can hopefully push on to the next level, whether that be to play for England or at least getting the respect he deserves.

"He has rightly been voted player of the year by the fans, his team-mates and the media - he has been outstanding."
