mean old Lambert

from mean big club Norwich had a word with the ref and he called it off. Its not fair.

Presumably he had a word at 1.45 because they arrived, saw the state of the pitch and questioned the ref as to whether it was playable. The ref, who apparently hadn't looked at it since 11.30, then decided at 2.00 that the groundstaff hadn't made as much progress as he would have liked (i.e. bits still frozen) and he called it off.

I don't see the problem as far as Lambert is concerned.
