Paul Lambert insists that Celtic’ s class of 2003 were silverware addicts who came up just short.
The former Hoops skipper doesn’t buy into a school of thought that a combination of domestic and European exertions played a factor in losing their league crown to Rangers and falling at the last hurdle on their Road to Seville.
That extra-time defeat to Porto in the UEFA Cup Final still hurts Lambert but he’s adamant it was bad luck rather than fatigue which cost them in a campaign where they were also pipped to the title on the final day.
