I seem to think that a former supporter Margery Chamberlain, the wife of former chairman of Supporters Club Bill Chamberlain,actually made the Bulldog. It was after John Alty bought a real one.

Yep Tommy it was Margery who made 'Winstanley' the Bulldog.

That was Winstanley. He hasn't been around for a while. Perhaps he got sent off to the 'farm'. :D
