HULL FC star Scott Taylor is aiming to silence his noisy neighbours over their Wembley woe.
Taylor is fed up of Hull KR supporters reminding him of his beloved club’s hopeless record in the Challenge Cup.
Rovers supporters have trotted out the chant ‘Old faithful, you’ll never win at Wembley’, ever since they beat their rivals in the 1980 final. Now Taylor wants to the shut them up by lifting the trophy again.
Taylor, 25, tonight faces old club Wigan — who he lifted the Cup with in 2013.
Hull FC last won the trophy in 2005, and he said: “When you meet a Hull KR fan, it’s all they say to you.
“If we won it, they’d need something else to sing. I want to rewrite the history books.”
Ahead of tonight’s semi-final at Doncaster, prop Taylor says he is finally home after spells at Wigan and Salford.
He added: “I’ve no regrets with Wigan. Playing for Hull in my home town is the best feeling.”
