I'd love for him to go to the Championship.
Every season I follow a team there and would love to see how he gets on week by week. The Championship makes for much better viewing anyway as the commentators aren't as narrative driven and there is less time wasted of players feigning injury.

I do the same. Usually a player we have on loan or a team like Fulham. I'd love to follow Mason's career until he's back to us.
Had he stayed on as our manager next season, he might have got the chance!!!
I think he'll do a Scott Parker personally... manage at a lower level, make the step up to PL, but still not quite cut it!
He's got Assistant manager/coach written all over him!
Good to have around, but not at the helm!
Don't really see the problem with Mason staying on. I'd much rather he went and forged his own managerial career for now but maybe he feels he needs more learning and learning under another coach and someone who is a lot different to the likes of Conte and Mourinho can only be a good thing.
Mason seems to have a good bond with the squad and the players respect him. I imagine he'd just be coaching and not an assistant manager though with Ange bringing his own guys in.

I think people get upset over nothing. He’s still only 31 and is clearly still in his coaching education. He’s nowhere near ready to be a head coach at any of the pro levels.
Nobody has forced any of Ange, Conte or Jose to keep him around and Poch saw something in him too.

A vastly different style of gaffa may allow him perspective regarding a lot of what he's learned from Conte & Jose.
if there is interest in him to be a manager for lower sides it seems a bit weird that he wouldn't explore those opportunities especially since he thinks he can be our full time manager.
Not meltdown.
Good coach stays on, is good.
I have questions about the culture at the club and Levy’s influence.
Also think he’d be better going to get a HC gig.
But fuck it why not stick around if that’s what everyone wants
That's cos you're not a twat.
The replies to the tweet are typically full of cunts insulting him though.
Meh. Personally think he needs to fly the nest & go get a coaching gig of his own somewhere, but not particularly bothered if he hangs around. But being here as the back-up option whenever a coach gets sacked is a weird situation for a very young coach to want to be in.
I'm sure he's had offers, but maybe is choosing options carefully which is fair..

Like Kane, Mason was part of the journey to peak Poch culture, and embraced it whole-heartedly (see Mauricio's comments below).
Mason clearly tried to start changing our culture after the toxicity of Mourinho, Nuno, Conte, as interim Head Coach, and you could see some of the players reacting positively to his ideas.
Ange also talks about culture a lot ,and now the challenge will be to implement a peak Postecoglou culture & philosophy.
Reports suggest Ange & Ryan Mason have spoken, so this is not Levy imposing a staff member on the new Head Coach.
I'm happy for Mason to be part of the coaching staff.

Last year, when Pochettino was asked which players have best embraced his ideas, the three he named were Mason, Harry Kane and Adam Lallana.
'They understood the philosophy about the game but also how we were human,' he said. 'They immediately captured our essence and went to the death with us.'
MATT BARLOW: Pochettino has a special gift of bringing others with him

Nicest thing anyone ever said to me…
Twitter is always going to twitter. Algos and trolls and bots oh my gosh
Maybe he has the self awareness to know he’s not ready.
Our fanbase on Twitter is 80% cunts.
Ange doesn't really have any particular guys he takes anywhere, it seems to depend on what job he has.
At Celtic his assistant was a Celtic stalwart John Kennedy and Gordon Strachan's kid.
Ange is currently on his own. Allegedly Kennedy wanted to come but so far still seems to be the caretaker.
