From the BBC preview of tomorrow's Everton game:
"Veteran full-back Tony Hibbert will captain Everton in Thursday's Europa League meeting with BATE Borisov.
The 28-year-old will be making a club-record 20th European appearance against the Belarussian side at Goodison Park."
Veteran? 28? That's my age! In my day "veteran" in football teams generally meant someone from mid 30s upwards. Am I now going to have to come to terms with aging...?

Hahahahaha!
Harumph. I'm a veteran in my line of work and I'm approaching six decades, three of them in this field (pun intended)!
Whippersnapper!

You know you're getting old when the sports writers start looking and sounding younger.
