ITâS A KNOCKOUT: BATH V SARACENS
It’s been a long time since The Rec hosted Big Cup knockout rugby at The Rec. 24 years in fact. Louie Hennessey wasn’t even born. On that day, Stephen Jones booted Llanelli into the semi-finals at our expense. There is every reason to believe Saturday might see a very different result.Bath qualified for the knockout stages of this year’s competition as fourth seeds and will have home advantage this weekend – and next week if we win. A further win in the quarter-final against Saints or Castres would open up the mouthwatering prospect of a semi-final, in all probability against Bordeaux (away) or Toulouse (home).
