Lampwick Posted November 23, 2021 Report Share Posted November 23, 2021 (edited) What a super effort and super chap! The love between him and his mate Rob, is heartwarming. Over £600k raised for MND so far. Good for him and his support. https://www.bbc.com/sport/rugby-league/59385774.amp Edited November 23, 2021 by Lampwick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henry d Posted November 23, 2021 Report Share Posted November 23, 2021 It was a great effort and he was absolutely drained, mentally and physically. Well done that man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave at kelton Posted November 23, 2021 Report Share Posted November 23, 2021 This is the man that should be recognised as a superstar not jumped over paid formula 1 drivers or football players! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisjpainter Posted November 23, 2021 Report Share Posted November 23, 2021 I'm a Union fan, myself, so know little of actually playing that weird league thing, but this guy's got such humility and integrity about him. I think he represents the very best of all that sport can bring to humanity. Hopefully he'll get the recognition he deserves! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right about Kevin in how you describe the man. Perhaps its rugby league that helped shape his attitude to life and character which made him the man he is.

Lampwick Posted November 23, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2021 I played union too, but a sissy winger! I think I would have loved league. They’ve called him Sir Kev up there for ages and yes he deserves it for real!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However like they say we are all enemies till the final whistle and after that best of friends. The guy definitely deserves a knighthood. When you think about the likes of Saville, Philip Green et al. Kev should be at the front of the queue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's always baffled me that league isn't popular down south, or away from the M62 and Cumbria really, it's easier to watch and faster to play, and I've played both and watch both so I'm allowed to say it 😁 Sir Kev definitely is a legend, he was a leader and a giant on the pitch, and has done all he's done trying to help his mate and raise awareness of MND, he's a Yorkshireman any Lancashire lad would happily buy a pint. I really hope he does well at Leicester tigers, the league players seem to make great defence coaches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

100milesaway Posted December 3, 2021 Report Share Posted December 3, 2021 Kevin Sinfield is from Grotton which is in Saddleworth Yorkshire. He has amassed well over the million pounds for his latest run and a few months ago raised well over one and a half million pounds for the charity to help his friend and colleague doing 7 marathons in 7 days. A true legend and sportsman, very humble and a fine example for future sportsmen and women to emulate. From Auntie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
