I stabbed him in the living room and now he's in the bathroom.'I said summat and he argued with me and then, all of a sudden, I just flipped.'I was sick of him always picking on me and calling me an old man and everything.'Hall is due to appear in Hull Crown Court for sentencing today.He pleaded guilty to murdering his son in their East Yorkshire home by stabbing him twice in the chest and abdomen before calling emergency services.Father-of-two, Mr McGlone, had recently moved back in with his father.The court was told that the two had been heard arguing in a pub.
