  1. I remember Harry Bath so very well, My late husband and I never missed a game in our home town of Warrington in the UK. He was a great player, we all loved him. Rest in peace Harry.

  2. I will never forget Harry Bath for the way he rallied to the cause to help another former Warrington skipper, Mike Gregory, in his hour of need.

    Despite his own failing health Harry sent his Championship winners medal to Warrington to help raise funds for Mike.

    RIP Harry – you were simply the best.
