Show Notes
He led Wycombe Wanderers to a League Cup Semi Final against Chelsea and took Norwich City from League Two to 10th in the Premier League and we bet that he bawled and shouted at a fair few referees along the way. Paul Lambert joins Craig Levein and Amy Irons to take a look at the men in the middle. Do managers have any sympathy for the officials? Have they ever apologised for getting it wrong?
Paul reveals what happened when he ran into the referees room to complain about an assistant ref, only to see him sitting in the corner, Craig tells us about the time he refused to pay a fine for criticising the official and Amy ponders whether it's worse being the 4th Official rather than the man in charge.
