Norwich City skipper Grant Holt lifted the League One title in front of a packed Carrow Road, not even a 2-0 defeat to Carlisle could spoil the party (all photos by Christopher Lee/Getty Images).
Midfielder Korey Smith came closest to getting a goal for the champions, but Carlisle were straight out of the blocks with goals from Gary Madine and Jason Price in the first seven minutes.
Wes Hoolahan made his comeback from injury to start the final game of the season, but despite his creative flair City couldn't break through a resolute Carlisle defence.
As the rest of the teams at the top of League One battled over second place, with Leeds coming out on top, the celebrations began at Carrow Road.
Over 25,000 fans packed into Carrow Road for what was an ultimately disappointing game, but spirits couldn't be dampened after a record breaking season.
Grant Holt lifted the trophy less than a year after joining City, he's since become the club captain, top scorer and player of the season.
Paul Lambert holds the silverware aloft for Norwich City fans after managing the Canaries to an astonishing 32 wins from 50 games.
Midfielder Simon Lappin makes the most of his moment with the trophy, one of the team's most consistent players he was unlucky not to score a single goal all season.
"There's only one Paul Lambert," sang the Norwich City fans, as the Canaries' manager left the field, undoubtedly making plans for the Championship already.
Norwich fans stayed behind well after the final whistle to share in the moment, only the club's fifth piece of silverware in their 108 year history.
