Why when I'm searching for football highlights etc, can't I find anything Rangers related?All I get is power rangers and the like.I type in Celtic and there's loads of stuff.

Rangers is a very indistinct term. Power rangers, Glasgow rangers, park rangers, new York rangers, texas rangers etc etc

Celtic is more less used as a term. The nearest other term for celtic is 'the celts'

Though I used voice search on sky q for rangers. Top result is "latest news from sky sports" and first result is hearts v rangers news, next is highlights from spfl.

Voice search celtic gives the same results.

Doesn't matter.Ive tried different terms and nothing comes up.The name of the club is Rangers not Glasgow Rangers.Never has been.

Still you would think something would appear after power rangers etc.

Very odd indeed.

Also Celtic has different meanings too.

@kmkmkll

Search is rather different in this context to normal online search engine operation because there's currently no way to automatically analyse the video and audio content itself: only the fairly minimal text description input by humans is visible to the bot

Presumably this will eventually be a job handed over to AI.
