The enthusiasm was palpable down Belmore way with the exciting news that Ted Glossop will be taking over the reins from beleaguered Dogs coach Trent Barret effective immediately.
"I'm so very proud and delighted to be back, I'm brimming with ideas and can't weight to hit the paddock with the boys" beamed the exuberant master coach.
Bulldogs supremo, the venerable, Gus Gould is responsible for giving Glossop the nod.
"You just can't leave a sharp footy brain like Teddys sitting on the sideline forever, it would be a terrible waste of talent!"
Negotiations are also afoot to lure brilliant five-eighth Garry Hughes and International hooker and club legend Dr. George Peponis back into the fray so stay tuned Bulldogs fans the "entertainers" will be barking once again!
