Norwich City boss in Hall of Fame

Paul Lambert took over as Norwich City manager in August 2009

Norwich City boss Paul Lambert has been inducted into Scottish football's Hall of Fame.

The former Celtic midfielder played for his country in the 1998 World Cup and won the Champions League with Borussia Dortmund the year before.

Lambert said he was delighted to be among names such as Mo Johnston, Denis Law and Jock Stein.

"You look at some of the names that are there, it's a terrific honour to get an accolade," Lambert said.

The nominations are chosen by football fans around the world and the final list is chosen by football and media experts.

"It's terrific to be recognised in your own country and that is one of the big things for myself," Lambert told the BBC.

"I was really fortunate to play in a World Cup. If you're not going to win the World Cup, you make sure you play Brazil in the opening game, so that was a terrific honour. "

After the inductees were announced at a dinner in Glasgow, the Norwich City manager took time to heap praise on the Canaries' supporters.

"I think the fan base is phenomenal. We sell out the stadium virtually every week with 25,000 people coming to watch and expecting you to win."
