Why are Rangers Football Club called the Bears and Celtic Football Club called Tims?

Stockport County were called the Hatters because there was a hat-making industry in the town. It’s why we’re all mad. Luton are also called the Hatters for exactly the same reason.

Lincoln City are The Imps because of the famous Lincoln Imp

Rangers fans are called ‘Bears, Teddy Bears’ after their mascot ‘Broxy Bear’ named after the Stadium Ibrox, in Glasgow. Glasgow Rangers are also referred to as the ‘Huns’ too

Celtic fans are called Tims after an old catholic gang many years ago called the ‘Tim Malloys’
