Glasgow man wins £5k on The Chase after beating the chaser with seconds to spare

A Glasgow man has beaten the chasers and managed to bag himself £5k.

Ged introduces himself and says that he's from Glasgow, also telling host Bradley Walsh that he works for UEFA as an administrator. He goes on to say that his job is very behind the scenes and he does everything to facilitate football that's shown on TV.

Bradley then cheekily asks if he gets the chance to go to many games, to which Ged replies: "Yes once the UEFA train comes to Scotland that's when I kind of kick in".

Of course, with football in question, there was really only one question for the host to ask.

Bradley asks: "So are you a fan of any particular club?" to which Ged replies: "I could be, yes!"

The two laugh together before Bradley asks the serious question: "Blue or green?"

Ged skirts the question, stating that he can't give an answer and has to stay on the fence due to his job with UEFA, but Bradley doesn't give up and asks him which side of the fence he would err on.

The Glaswegian holds his nerve though, and adamantly states that he is "straight in the middle."

After bringing back £4k at the first round, Ged makes it back to the final three to take on the chaser. The trio manage to get 19 steps ahead of the Sinnerman.

With only one second to spare, the chaser gets a question wrong and can't recover and so the trio manage to win a whopping £15k which is split up to £5k each.
