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

Asked by rainbowspirit (243points) September 22nd, 2010

I wondered if anyone could tell me why Rangers FC are called The Bears and Celtic FC are called Tims? I would also be interested in the origins of any UK Football team’s nicknames as well e.g. West Ham are the Irons etc.
