Whether you think he's the right man or not, it's hard to fault his loyalty and willingness to step up when needed.

I don't think this is a particularly good moment or fit to consider that because ultimately he's only doing so when it's his reputation on the line, it serves himself. Let's see a moment when he's willing to show loyalty by doing something that's detrimental to himself.

I agree that there's little positive to salvage from the remainder of the season, but I do think there needs to be immmediate action taken to stop the rot. Another 6 performances like Newcastle, Bournemouth & Everton (& Brighton, to be honest) could be very damaging for the club going forward.

Wouldn't surprise me if a lot of our better players (at least the ones we would want to keep) have already been on the phone to their agents to find them a quick way out of this toxic mess.
The players are responsible for at least 50% of the toxicity, so they can fuck right off along with Levy and anyone else who doesn't want to be at the club.

Meh. At this point he might as well cut out the middle man and just do the fucking job himself. I’m amazed to see he actually accepted some responsibility for the mess we’re in (while casually firing yet another ill-appointed manager).

And so Mason becomes the latest human shield. Godspeed, young Ryan - I hope you’ve got a good assistant to take over from you.

You do wonder if Mason might serve his career better by heading elsewhere and getting a proper permanent gig where he can just focus on learning in a settled environment.

It’s almost unfair on him to keep expecting him to start his path of being a manager by caretaking this absolute shit show.

In the San Siro Marriott I wished Stellini the best of luck the night before the game in the bar and Mason the same in the gym the next day .............. maybe it is all my fault especially as I also shock Perisic hand and he has turned to sh*t as well ....

Tbf, there's likely up and coming manager hopefuls who would bite your arm off for the kind of exposure and opportunity he's getting.

COYS, Daniel.
Ha! I mean, whatever he wrote he was gonna get pelters cos he’s royally fucking up the main part (the football on the pitch, we are a football club, Daniel!) quite consistently over his reign. But COYS, Daniel? You see, this is a big worry of mine with him, which started in watching the All Or Nothing thingy, he’s too close to the players in that. Too close to the manager. And now he’s trying to be too close to us fans. And the amazing part is, he seems like a really odd guy. Like the weird guy at work, who is always there, but everyone takes the piss out of. He has no clue about how awkward he is, how distant while trying to be close. He’s a very strange guy. I’d prefer him to be distant, and stay distant. Do his part that hes good at, and truly stay well away from the football side of things - players, staff, and fans. Then I could tolerate him. All he does is come across as fake. Taking the blame while sacking a few people below him. Bollocks. What a load of bollocks you weasel twat. The statement should have been that for his part, he will now be focusing solely on the business side, and will be putting a structure in place to take care of all the football side. Fuck off back to your office and don’t come out.

COYS, Gavin.

SC - "FFS Levy, sack this clown".
SC - "FFS Levy!"

He's done the best thing in getting Stellini out the door. It's too late but at least he hasn't dragged it out for the rest of the season.

Mason can hopefully clear the air with the squad and at least try to play some sensible football.













Looks at the fixtures list - we're fucked!
