ITV The Chase fans disgusted with Liverpool fan's actions

The Chase fans were left disgusted tonight, after Liverpool fan Premal took the low offer.

Premal, from Leicester, said he enjoyed watching footbal l in his spare time and he supported "the big reds"

Premal said he'd grown up around Liverpool supporters, with his family also all big fans.

He said whenever there was a game on he always got the family round to watch it - and that John Barnes was one of his heroes.

The Chaser was The Vixen and she offered him a low offer of £1,000 - despite his team advising him to stick with the £4k, Premal ignored their advice and went for the low offer.

Premal said: "I was expecting a minus offer, so to get a positive is a plus, I just want to get back to the team."

And Chase fans were not happy on twitter.

One said: "Really get annoyed when contestants bottle it on the #TheChase and take the lower offer I mean come on be courageous and take a chance."

Another said: "I went out for a gin and come back to find he’s taken the low offer! What’s going on with these people lately."

Premal managed to beat The Chaser and get back to the team, but was filled with regret he didn't go for the £4k in the end, saying "hindsight is a beautiful thing."
