Wikipiedia suggests that Lambert has never been sacked as a manager. Is that true?

"After studying for football coaching qualifications in 2005, Lambert landed his first managerial job with Livingston on 1 June 2005. Lambert studied for his UEFA coaching credentials in Germany, one of very few non-Germans to have been given dispensation to do so. Although he had not intended to play for his new club Lambert registered as a player in late August 2005 to cover for any injury shortages. His tenure ended the following February when he resigned after only winning two league games since starting the job.
Lambert was appointed manager of English-team Wycombe Wanderers on 30 June 2006. He led Wycombe to the League Cup semi-finals after defeating Premier League sides Fulham and Charlton Athletic. The semi-final tie, against then Premier League champions Chelsea, saw Wycombe hold Chelsea to a 1?1 draw at Adams Park before losing the away leg. This was the first time in over 30 years a fourth tier team had reached that stage of the League Cup. Lambert resigned as Wycombe manager on 20 May 2008 following the club's elimination from the League Two play-offs by Stockport County.
On 9 October 2008, he was appointed as manager of Colchester United.[2] to succeed Geraint Williams, before winning his first game 2-1 at Stockport County.
On 18 August 2009, he became the new Norwich City manager, replacing Bryan Gunn, who was sacked by the club shortly after an opening-day 7-1 defeat to Colchester, managed by Lambert.[3] Discussions are ongoing regarding compensation to Colchester.[4] Lambert is currently stastically the best manager in Norwich's history."
