ROB Burrow's dad slammed the honours system yesterday after Kevin Sinfield was once again overlooked for a knighthood.
Geoff Burrow led calls for rugby league hero Sinfield to be made "Sir Kev" in recognition of his extraordinary fundraising feats.
Kevin, 44, and fellow Leeds Rhinos legend Rob, who died last June from motor neurone disease at the age of 41, raised £16million together.
Kevin added another £1.5m for MND research with seven gruelling ultra marathons in seven days last month.
He was given a CBE last year and Whitehall sources say another honour is f not usually awarded within three years.
