Sir Kevin Sinfield

[butchstewie]

Bloody superb

[JNW1]

Very well deserved - in my view this should have happened a while ago but better late than never!

[TR4man]

I can't believe that it has taken so long for him to be recognised.

If ever there was a more worthy recipient, I don't know of one.

Who he?

[zetec]

Good. Well deserved.

[DeejRC]

He might be Leeds, but he has earned it right and proper. Played Kev.

Class player, class coach, class friend.

For such a regular commenter on NP&E, I would’ve thought you regularly read newspapers and watch TV news, so I’m amazed you don’t know.

Echoing previous comments, well done Sir Kevin, a richly deserved honour.

Raised £11m for charity.

Thoroughly well deserved. He should have been knighted years ago.

[BigMon]

Long overdue and, compared with some of the utter non-entities who get one, utterly, utterly deserved. He is an inspiration.

[chrispmartha]

The world needs more Kevin Sinfields.

He’s been Sir Kev for years anyway, good to see it official

[Tickle]

Fantastic, what took so long. Absolutely inspirational man.

I'm with you on this one but then I am not into football so it would not register with me.

He is an ex-sportsman but Rugby nor football.

Well put his name into Google and look at some of the things he has done and you'll hopefully understand why he deserves it.

I did, and sure he does, but that doesn't change the fact that I have never heard of him.

Not too sure why you're coming on here just to post that to be honest?

Why not look on Google at his achievements, then you'll see why and you can contribute from an informed position.

Because someone started a thread about someone I had never heard of. I wasn't aware that it's not permitted to say so. I'll bear this in mind should another thread be started about someone else I have never heard of.
