29 May on this day
2004: Bath made their last appearance in a big Twickenham game, losing the Premiership final to Wasps 10-6. Bath had been England’s dominant club side for over a decade, winning 10 cup finals in 13 years from 1984 and six league titles in six years from 1989. Here Simon Shaw consoles his England team-mate Mike Catt who was playing his last Bath game. It’s been a frustrating wait, but Bath are back at HQ tomorrow, taking on Saracens for the Aviva Premiership title.
