Warne Set for Portman Road 'Walk of Shame' - Ipswich Town News
Rotherham’s Norwich City-supporting boss Paul Warne is set for what he calls a 'walk of shame' at Portman Road this evening.
Warne was born in Norwich and started his career with Norfolk sides Great Yarmouth Town, Diss Town and Wroxham before moving into league football.
The 46-year-old, whose team are 12th in League One, says he has plenty of friends coming to tonight’s match.
"I have got loads of people coming, about 20-odd,” he told the Yorkshire Post.
"I do not want to make a massive deal out of me being a Norwich fan as opposition grounds hate opposition managers and this will not help my cause. And it is a ‘walk of shame’ at Ipswich to the dug-out.”
