The 1946 Rugby League Lancashire Cup competition 1946 was the thirty-fourth occasion on which the Lancashire Cup completion had been held. Wigan won the trophy by beating Belle Vue Rangers by the score of 9-3. The match was played at Station Road, Pendlebury, Salford, (historically in the county of Lancashire). The attendance was 21,648 and receipts were £2,658. Although it could not have been known at this time, this was to be the first of Wigan’s record breaking run of six consecutive Lancashire Cup victories. It was also to be the first of two consecutive finals to be competed for by these two teams. == Background == The number of teams entering showed little change from before the war. Leigh returned to the sport using a rented athletic stadium while their purpose built stadium was under construction. Overall, the number of teams entering this year’s competition increased by one with the return of Leigh bringing the total up to 13. The same pre-war fixture format was retained. This season saw one bye and one “blank” or “dummy” fixture in the first round. The second round also had one bye, but now no “blank” fixture”. As last season, all the first round ties of the competition was played on the basis of two legged, home and away, ties. In addition, this season, the second round was also on a two leg, home and away basis. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「1946 Lancashire Cup」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
