Remember the Buddies Cup Final win at Fev.

Some HKR fans took some seats they had no tickets for near us and resisted moving for ages. They told the old people who had their tickets to go somewhere else. Before they eventually moved they did make strange grunting noises when Stanley Gene appeared and shouted 'throw him a banana'.

It was a different group who jeered Stanley when he was - stupidly - sent off and threw tea / coffee over him.

I am confident that Giants fans will not treat him that way tomorrow.

The Tea/Coffee is too expensive?

it was beer wasn't it they threw over him?
i can still picture the 200 Hull Kr fans on the pitch at the end running over to the mass ranks of Giants fans and challenging us ! if we weren't too busy celebrating our cup win we would have laughed at them !

It was definately Whitehaven who held us to a 12-12. We then put 80 past them at home.
The game at Fev was close but we did sneak a win.

As for the drink throwing incident it was defiantly tea. I was very close to the idiot who threw it. Funny how quickly he retreated when Darren Turner asked him to come down to the fron of the stand
