Filip 'Chibs' Telford is the Vice President of the Sons of Anarchy Motorcycle Club's mother chapter and, unlike most of the club's members who are American, he is Scottish (The Irish often refer to him as "The Scot"). He is nicknamed 'Chibs' because of his facial scars ("chib" is Scots slang for Wife Beater, or slash), which are actual scars Flanagan received in a mugging and that the character of Chibs was given by his nemesis, Jimmy O' Phelan. He is extremely loyal to Jax, the club's President, and appears to be an increasingly fatherlike figure toJuice.

Telford was born in 1963 and is originally from Glasgow, Scotland, but grew up in Belfast, Northern Ireland and served as a medic with the British Army; his military service however, lasted only five months, ending in a court martial due to him being involved in pro-IRA activity. His army experience has led to him becoming the club's medic for backdoor emergency surgery. He was married to Fiona Larkin and has a daughter named Kerrianne. However, when he was thrown out of the True IRA, the group's leader, Jimmy O'Phelan, took his family from him. O'Phelan also scarred his face and told him never to return to Ireland. He became SAMBEL’s first prospect, who eventually patched over from SAMBEL to SAMCRO becoming the liaison between the two charters. He is also SAMCRO's connection with the True IRA, who sell guns to gangs in the United States. He is heard to speak Irish and Scottish Gaelic.
