[1] Lambden married Bristol Rovers fan Grace Ford at St Anne's Church in Oldland on 28 February 1949.
[2] Lambden began his footballing career playing for his local team, Oldland Abbotonians, before joining Bristol Rovers in 1945.
His nine-minute treble (the goals coming in the 18th, 25th and 27th minutes) in a game against Aldershot remained the club's fastest until Dai Ward scored a four-minute hat-track in 1956.
His 117-goal tally was later surpassed by Alfie Biggs and Harold Jarman, but he remains the fourth on the club's top goalscorers list into the 21st century.
Over the period of his time playing at Eastville, Lambden had become widely known for his successful partnership with fellow forward Bradford, and the pair later died just eighteen months apart from each other.
