SaintRam Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Ah good. I'm glad he's getting some time at a decent level to see if he can pick up his progression, he's stalled a little bit over tehe last year or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stimacked Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 I think this will be great for Mason. Nigel looked after him when he was boss and will help him to pick up his career again, maybe with Burton, next season rather than with us, but he has deserved better. Was unfortunate to miss out on the loan to the Blades last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioactiveWaste Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 I thought he'd gone out on loan before and not got games? I have a vauge memory of him being described as having incredible skill but zero footballing brain?? Still, hope it works for him and I'll always love he needed a note from his mum to make his debut.

It's possible that you're fishing, but here goes...... Nigel , it can be argued, didn't get the best out of his players whilst at Derby, but he did do pretty well bringing the youth players through. Hughes and Hendick are still important members of the squad and Bennet amongst others was given an opportunity in the first team at a very young age. Maybe Nigel won't turn him into the next England centre forward but I do think that he will at least be given a good chance. p.s I do think that Nigel was good for Derby for a long time, but I also think that it was time for a change when he went. I'm not bothered if we went about it in the right way or not, this is football and more impotantly DCFC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nigel built the core of the team that would go on to challenge for promotion for three successive seasons. Like it or not, when it comes down to it, Nigel's influence can't be underestimated.

Know what you are saying he really put back Hughes development playing him all those games at such a young age. Have to disagree on this one fella, gave Mason his chance, might just be what he needs, Clough knows his game as well as any Manager outside the Rams set up, as do his staff. Arm round him n all that. Do think it could be pivotal to an extent though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mason is still only 19, he has been in and out of the first team for 4 years it is easy to forget that he is still so young, and also he has been injured quite a bit in the last 12 months, iirc. 1 hour ago, RadioactiveWaste said: I thought he'd gone out on loan before and not got games?

He went to Chesterfield in Jan 14 then went to Bradford at the start of last season, think it ended early because of injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Tibbs Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 A good move and maybe the right one too, linking up with Nige. Tough ask to go produce for a team pushing at the top of League One though, his previous experiences at Chesterfield and Bradford didn't seem to go smoothly. Good luck Mason, tear it up!
