At 16, the Dundee United defender is too young to start learning to drive and must wait until his birthday in December before he even thinks about getting his own wheels.
Until that moment, the talented centre-half will be chauffeured to St Andrews and back every day by a man 11 years his senior, fellow-defender Edwards.

Dundee United left-back Jamie Robson looks dejected after being sent off against St Mirren.
Dundee United boss Micky Mellon says they were “horrified” at the decision to send Jamie Robson off at St Mirren yesterday.
Referee Euan Anderson gave the 23-year-old his marching orders after a heavy tackle on Buddies winger Kyle McAllister in the second half of their 0-0 Premiership draw in Paisley.
Robson was having a good game down the left flank for United until he was shown a straight red for his challenge on McAllister.
Mellon defended his men and praised the way they performed after going down to ten men in the season’s curtain-closer.
