George Lambie (April 17, 1882 – November 19, 1965) was an American soccer referee.
[2][3] He briefly interrupted his soccer career by returned to his native Scotland to fight for the Allies during World War I.
In 1952, he was called "one of US's most famous soccer officials" by the Sarasota Herald tribune while Lambie spent winters residing in Florida to escape the cold of New England.
[citation needed] As recently as 2000, Lambie was recognized by The Boston Globe listing his controversial call in the 1927 game pitting the Boston Soccer Club vs. Uruguay as the number 1 moment of the "Best Local Games of the Century".
While Lambie operated his own plumbing and heating business for more than 50 years, he spent much time on the road officiating soccer games.
