In this photo print, we are transported back to the year 1980, where Lancashire emerged as the triumphant County Champions in Rugby Union. The image captures a moment of pure jubilation and pride as Bill Beaumont, the esteemed captain of Lancashire, stands tall alongside his victorious teammates. Among them is Mike Slemen, whose determination and skill played a crucial role in securing their hard-fought victory. The backdrop of this memorable occasion is none other than the Vale of Lune, an iconic venue that witnessed history being made on that fateful day. Covered in mud from head to toe, these warriors proudly display their battle scars earned during an intense clash against Gloucestershire. With sheer grit and unwavering teamwork, Lancashire managed to secure a well-deserved 21-15 triumph over their formidable opponents. As they clasp onto the coveted trophy with beaming smiles and eyes filled with elation, it becomes evident that this victory holds immense significance for both players and fans alike.
