Paul Lambert in directors box last night?

[Dr Zeuss 0]

A fan who sits near the directors box is adamant that Paul Lambert was sitting near Delia for the Watford game. I had no reason to doubt him but would have thought by now the story would have made it onto social media or EDP/Pinkun at very least. Especially as there seemed to be an exceptionally large number of telephoto lenses pointing in that direction just before kick off.

Anyone else aware of this?

Anyone else aware of this?[/quote]Not heard anything, which is odd.So I would have thought its likely he is mistaken.Was the fan is question a big bloke, answers to the name of "Waveney Canary"?

[Haggerdoo 6]

Yes he was there along with Pep Guardiola, Lord Lucan and Shergar

[hogesar 10,378]

I would suggest the fan is making it up. Completely.

[TIL 1010 5,118]

I sit near the directors box and always make a point of seeing who is there and can say this thread is total and absolute nonsense.

Im fairly close to the directors box and saw Delia, Lambert was definitely not in the box so just another made up rumour.

I saw him he was wearing a white tuxedo and serving drinks and nibbles.

I can confirm he was in the CEO''s office performing cruel impersonations of David McNally to his audience of Bowketts.

I wonder on what terms Lambo is with our club now?

I would hazard a guess he''s not on the Christmas Card list and doesn''t get free invitations to the directors box...

[curious yellow 184]

So, surprising that all the telephoto lens didn''t take any photos.

But say well done to your honourable friend for noticing all those cameras

Was his car parked outside at a funny angle?

[Guest]

I thought I saw him in the Jarrold complaining his sausage roll was only luke warm and not hot.

Typical nonsense rumour.

The pink ''un does have a pic (sorry - I can''t get it to move across) of the directors'' box from last night, and there is a Lambert lookalike in there.

Lambert''s gone never to be seen near Carrow Road again. Next.

[Well b back 3,570]

Was he wearing gloves after cleaning the toilets ?

3rd row from the bottom, 2nd from the right?

I see the resemblance.

But then 3rd row from the top, 4th from the left could be Fabio Capello.

[Katie Borkins 1]

Bottom row, 4th from right, must be Colonel Sanders?

Roger''s back! Doomcaster next?

 

Actually Roger never went away. Proper gent and City fan despite the Hull jibes of years ago...

[/quote]Yes. Him. I assume it is not Lambert, but I can ses how someone might have thought it was. But also then you would have to believe the directors were stupid enough to have Neil''s successor on display on their box when we hadn''t yet been relegated...

[/quote]There seems to be a few familiar faces on the row with Munby in it.

That it is someone else that the vast majority of Norwich City fans would not be able to identify is interesting, but not to the point.

The fact that you think it is Steve is even funnier than Lambert. The infamous SS crew cut has grown back a bit sharpish if it is. I''ll tell him on Monday night you think he looks like Lambert. As a fan of a certain other Midlands club that will cheer him up no end.
