Yet, amidst the splendour of his ascent, Mason remained firmly grounded, never forgetting the roots from which he had sprung, nor the love that had nurtured his growth.

A decision born of internal investigations led to his departure, albeit on loan, from the club that had been his home for fifteen years.
Now, for some months or maybe more, he will call home La Liga side Getafe as he gets the opportunity of a lifetime to resuscitate his career that was seemingly headed to the dogs.
The lad has been warmly welcomed by Getafe fans who queued in their numbers to witness the arrival of a football talent. Football enthusiasts the world over could only hope for a renaissance.
