There is a very tantalising game that can be played for our first non-competitive match at the New Stadium. So many players left on the verge of 10 years or were at the club for ages. Team could be made up of Lennon, Dawson, Huddlestone, Mason, Asso-Ekotto, Defoe (bet he retires in summer), VdV, then whilst it's difficult as they will no doubt be still playing for other clubs but Walker, Carroll, Townsend, Sandro, Livermore, Gomes, Bale & Smith.Always had time for Mason, gave his all, despite not always having the quality we would have liked. Who knows where his career may have gone if it wasn't for this.
Would love to see him get a testimonial at Spurs (non contact).
It's starting to happen more often now. When I read Poch or Pochettino that song from Love Story starts playing in my head....and so are you Poch... so are you!
A testimonial would be excellent first match in the new white hart lane let's get it onAlways had time for Mason, gave his all, despite not always having the quality we would have liked. Who knows where his career may have gone if it wasn't for this.

I believe this was brought up ages ago through the Trust regarding a testimonial for Dawson, and the club said that these days it's nearly impossible to arrange for players still at other clubs due to image right agreements. So assuming none of the others retire, I think it would have to be a testimonial for Mason with those players (possibly excluding BAE due to the alleged anti-Semitism stuff) invited to take part, which would be absolutely fantastic.There is a very tantalising game that can be played for our first non-competitive match at the New Stadium.

Regardless, should do something for Mason, Dawson, Lennon and Huddlestone, Defoe & BAE
