I think the boys done well recently, son.

I'm 28 and recently referred to John Rankin as "he's a wee laddie".

I am 6'4 though so I'm right in some respects.

I use 'son' to players, and tbh pals some of whom are older than me. It is the Fifer in me.

I reckon as soon as you're of an age where players your age are referred to as "veterans". I'm 38 now and I'm not aware of any players my age who are still going!

Was in the pub one night, my mate came from the toilet with a puzzled look on his face, some boy start the crap "toilet talk" (saying alright to folk you dont know when going for a pish) anyway, my mate said "alright son" to this guy who was old enough to be his dad and the guy went mental at him...

"Dinnae call me son..." is what the guy said to my mate!!:faf:
