Team runs to Plantagenet stronghold (7)
I believe the answer is:
rangers
'team' is the definition.
(Rangers F.C.)
I don't understand the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for rangers that I've seen before include "Rovers (or > Wanderers?)" , "Scottish players" , "They look after the Forest" , "Administrators of Forest" , "footballers" .)
