FFS, he's not dying or was ever going to!

That's rather lovely, la. You should consider journalism as a career.

Probably too late now, but still.

I think it's a rather sweet gesture.

Me too. I would draw the line at a minutes silence when one of them karks it though. Mind you, Erik Lamela is currently out of the spurs side saying he's too grief stricken over the death of his dog!!

I like the fact that the title of this thread makes it look as if you're annoyed he's not dead.

After eight minutes of medical attention, Mason was slid gently on to the stretcher. Dawson, ever the caring captain, checked on Mason again as he was carried toward the tunnel. Fans could now see how stricken Mason was. Rivalry was placed to one side as Hull and Chelsea fans united in sympathetic, concerned applause for the midfielder. As news filtered out that he had been taken to St Mary’s Hospital, and was then undergoing an operation, social media was filled with people posting support and prayers.

Football didn’t matter in a moment like this. The history books will record Chelsea won 2-0 with goals from Costa and Cahill but all that matters was what befell Mason. Premier League footballers are often perceived as enjoying a gilded existence, but Mason has worked hard to rise towards the top, playing for Tottenham, gaining an England cap against Italy in 2015, and being a valued member of Hull’s midfield as they fight relegation. He is one of those trusted professionals who won’t let the side down on or off the pitch.

I read that on the 6:47 train to London Waterloo - had it not been so rammed with passengers I may have upchucked.

God it was awful.
