I don't think Mason can change the tide.
It's too late, the damage is done.
I don't like it, but it isn't going to change the results IMO.

Just the once, but still quite disappointing looking at our record nonetheless. Without CL drop outs, with Champions league football on the line (and this season a shocking league campaign) we should be going all out for the tournament.
You’re bringing back sad memories!
I remember the 6-0 thrashing at City where poor Daws was found out with his lack of pace and we conceded early on but just after the goal we actually knocked the ball about and played well!
2nd goal knocked the stuffing out of us though sadly!
I think Levy would tap someone other than Mason if Ange is sacked before the end of the season. The optics of going crawling back to Mason again would be poorer for Levy.

Just added some context to all those seasons we didn't get as far as the mighty quarter finals.
Even if we win it, a bottom half finish isn't acceptable at all.
It was also the largely lacklustre football which was about as dull as I've ever seen. And the infighting with Levy over transfers.
This was a particularly big issue as AVB fancied himself as a high level scout in many ways and had a vast network of connections with players.
He wanted us to sign Hulk for £40m and had apparently agreed the deal with the player. Can't blame Levy for that one really!
I quite liked AVB actually. I obviously didn't like his style of football but warmed to him significantly more than every manager since apart from Pochettino.
Didn't AVB want Moutinho and got Dempsey instead?
This one is the epitome of no winners here.
I quite liked Dempsey... I thought he always gave everything. 12 goals and 5 assists in 43 games.
From memory Moutinho had agreed to join us but the transfer paperwork 'mysteriously' messed up, leaving the deal scuppered and apparently AVB livid.
Dempsey was AVB's choice to replace VDV. Not a great decision. As in he told VDV he wasn't wanted.
Suffered for not being a glamour signing. Fans never took to him.
Wasn't it a 3rd party ownership issue? IE, the sort of player Levy loves to pursue knowing full well we cant sign them?
Moutinho and Hulk...both of whom turned out having unbelievable longevity.
Moutinho was class every time we played against him for Wolves especially and that was past his best.
Andre Villas-Boas did not approve four of Tottenham’s seven summer signings and asked chairman Daniel Levy not to buy them.
Villas-Boas objected to the acquisitions of Erik Lamela, Nacer Chadli, Vlad Chiriches and Christian Eriksen, a quartet who cost Spurs a total of £56million, but his judgment was overruled.
The Portuguese manager asked his chairman to buy Hulk, Joao Moutinho and David Villa as he planned for life without Gareth Bale.

If he is still here for it then it won't be a lap of appreciation.
I thought that was Dybala but could be wrong.
There's an ocean of deals we have fucked up!
Think it will be the first time that I won't stay for the lap of appreciation.
To.be fair on slaphead, three of those were the actually decent signings that window.
AVB has now managed to become the president of Porto. It will be interesting to see if he is able to step up into that sort of role and succeed at it.
That lap of appreciation is going to be a shocker... it will either be performed to a stadium empty baring 10,000 Koreans or it will be so hostile the players decide to applaud from the centre circle then disappear. Nothing like the time Steffen Freund gave his shirt, shorts, socks, boots and shin pads away and was walking around in just his slips. Absolute fucking legend who gave it all (literally) when he stepped foot on the pitch. When we get knocked out Thursday, these last few weeks of the season will be awful to watch and the media are going to lap it up. Levy will brief the media against the fans. We will hear all that bollocks about being the worst supporters in the league, unrealistic expectations and so on. You just wait. It will be terrible as our great club gets dragged through the mud.
