Lambert rules out return to Celtic

Last updated : 03 March 2010 By Team Talk

Lambert skippered Celtic in the 2003 UEFA Cup final against Porto in Seville but he is not interested in a return to Scotland.

"I had eight terrific years at Celtic but there comes a time when you have to cut your ties," he told the Daily Record.

"I still look for Celtic's result and Seville will always remain the biggest disappointment in my football career. But the idea of coming back doesn't appeal to me."

Norwich are on course for promotion from League One this season and his challenge with the Canaries is of greater appeal than the SPL.

The 40-year-old added: "I mean no disrespect to Scottish football but England is just a bigger place. I'm proud of my Scottish heritage but a move back home is not for me.

"The idea of playing the same club anything from four to six times a season doesn't appeal to me."
