well done kevin sinfield that must have been close.

( wire fan)

The way the other awards went they'd probably given the team of the year to Northern Ireland if not the tennis.

Fantastic result well done Kevin and all who voted for him.

Well done Kevin. Put a couple of quid on my mobile bill, but well worth it

I tried repeatedly for 20 minutes to send my vote via text and each time my message wasn't delivered?



2 friends of mine have also had the same result



Anyone else not able to get their vote on?

50 mins after vote closed and 40 mins after show ends, bbbc have not yet put the votes cast on website

There wasn't an option to text vote, only to call.

Blimey, we did well.



Andy Murray polled 361,446 vote followed by: Kevin Sinfield 278,353, Jessica Ennis-Hill 79,898, Tyson Fury 72,330, Lewis Hamilton 48,379, Chris Froome 39,007, Mo Farah 31,311, Max Whitlock 25,925, Greg Rutherford 23,492, Lizzie Armitstead 22,356, Adam Peaty 13,738, Lucy Bronze 13,236.

Murray 360k , sinfield 278k, Jess 78k - great effort by rl fans to get such a big vote. Without sinny next year Murray could win again

Wow, I was hoping we could get him to around 100k for third place (would've been enough for 2nd anyway as it turns out)......but 278k is phenomenal. 1st place would've been amazing but we gave it a great shot and if someone came on this board a month ago before the nominations were even announced and said Sinfield would get 2nd place with that number of votes we'd have said they were nuts. To think Sinfield got 230k MORE votes than Lewis Hamilton is ridiculous.



Glad Ennis-Hill edged out Tyson Fury for third also.

Too right truly amazing result.

Great effort by the RL community and some others I suppose. Sir Kev, a top bloke in a top sport. Congrats from the HJ
