| Many of you on this forum will probably have heard by now of the loss, at the weekend, of one of our posters Big Stuart - Stuart Greaves
Stuart was a well known figure at Fartown and The Galpharm working firstly "behind the scenes" and then for the tireless work he put in organising trips, social events and fundraising for the Vice Presidents/Legends (or Leg-Ends / Prawn sarni brigade as he put it !)
He took a joke and gave one and was as keen a supporter of the claret and gold as you could find , and was known, recognised and respected by many opposition supporters as well . Many will remember him sat in the raised area at Weatherspoons , Cardiff chatting to loads of rival supporters and giving as good a he got ! - and Ive a photo I took of him taking a "breather" in Perpignan - sat in a doorway with his own "personal" bottle of red!
I personally will miss the "sessions" we had and Im sure there will be many more who`ll find that theres a big void at the stadium now hes sadly left us
My sincere condolences to all his family and friends
Rest in Peace, big fella !

He worked tirelessly for the club and was on every committee and player testimonial group going.
I hope there is a minutes silence for him on Friday.

| I only talked to him a few times but he was always kind enough to help me out with any problems i had, and i know he was very helpful to members of my family over the past 5 years.. Thoughts are with his family.
If ever there was a Mr. Fartown, he was it.
RIP Big Stuart

| Ive known Stuart since I was a little girl and hes an amazing guy. Always sorting out the trips finding us cheap hotels so we didnt have to pay a fortune and chasing those who hadnt payed.. Got so many memories of him. Defintely hope there is a 1 minute silence for him.
RIP Stuart.

| Stuart put a lot of unpaid thankless work for Hudds over the years.
Fartown through and through.
He will be sadly missed. My condolences to his family.

| Terrible news - Stuart was one of the 1st people i got to know of through following Fartown - a true club stalwart who did loads for this club especially through the darker days and a really nice guy too - he was a true character and i know in the late 80's when i was a nipper at fartown he always had time for a natter with us in the clubhouse.
Sad, sad news indeed
A true loss to our club, condolences to his family and friends and RIP Stuart - your a claret and gold angel now fella !

12411.jpg Sing a song of Yorkshire, from the Humber to the Tees
Of cricket, rugby, beer, of pudding and of cheese
I know no other county where the land is quite so fine
England's lovely county. And I'm proud to call it mine
Where shining purple heather stretches far across the moor
And the lapwing's cry above me takes the place of traffic roar
And peace comes drifting gently, there's no place I'd rather be
Than this land of hills and valleys, from the Pennines to the sea
So when I've done my roaming, and when my step grows slow
When heart and mind assure me that the time has come to go
Then let me rest in Yorkshire, for its there I want to lie
'Neath sun and wind and heather... and a gleaming Yorkshire sky:12411.jpg |
|
| RIP Stu!
A sad day not only for the Hudds Giants but for the amateur rugby league scene in the town also.

| Really shocked to hear the news - when Wuzz and I got married back in the day we had a 'do' at the then Arena 84 and Big Stu organised it for us and then was the life and soul of the party dancing around wearing a Tina Turner wig! Great guy and a true Fartowner...RIP

| RIP Stuart
Sincere condolances to Stuarts family, friends and fellow RL followers. The Giants have lost a true friend indeed, he never took a step back from helping the Giants in their aspirations of greater success and winning ways. The supporters, friends and players will certainly miss you Big Stuart.
The club should consider some sort of memorium to acknowledge this true "Fartown" supporter.
