Disagreement blows over? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

spat

'disagreement' is the definition.
(spat is a kind of disagreement)

'blows over?' is the wordplay.
'blows' becomes 'taps' (tap is a kind of blow).
'over?' says the letters should be written in reverse (I've seen 'over ' mean this).
'taps' in reverse letter order is 'SPAT'.

(Other definitions for spat that I've seen before include "Taps in minor quarrel" , "Minor difference" , "Taps in a small quarrel" , "Short gaiter or slight quarrel (4)" , "Small altercations between Pats" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
