IMO. he and Spurs could be a good match right now. He's so young he can spend 5 years proving he knows what he's doing. As long he keeps us up and around the top 4, Levy is happy.
I'm not saying he 100% will be the next coach, but there is about to be a hell of a lot of smoke from now on.
Yes he has!!! Time for the next mug to work for Events Hotspur.
I commented your post.
The thing I don't understand is, why say that Stellini and Mason are taking over for the rest of the season? Why not just say that are taking charge 'with immediate effect' or something like that? 'For the rest of the season' is surely pretty much confirming that we won't appoint anyone else between now and then. I hope to god that that means we've already got an agreement in place with one of our very top targets and just don't want to implement it yet (for whatever reason), but I fear it means we've not recruited a successor and yet and don't intend to until the season is over, by which point our key targets are likely to have been snapped up elsewhere.
Does anyone have any proposed positive spin on this particular element of the saga?

Why is Mason a future Spurs manager,I don’t see it.
The week before he had black smoke coming out of his ears
A slightly positive musing if an old cunt ;
There was absolutely no way that Conte could have kept his job after throwing the board, and more importantly the players under the bus.
I'm assuming that the more senior players would have had their views taken into account re Stellini, meaning that the players would be happier.
Stellini knows he'll only be here until the end of the season and will then reunite with Conte in his next job.
Mason will stay on as coach.
Levy/Paratici will be talking to, and negotiating with potential managers from now, with a view to starting at the end of the season.
They certainly won't wait until the end of the season to start the process.
He's a Spurs fan, academy product, clearly set his sights on a coaching career, knows the club and the hierarchy.
He's been in and around the club since his playing career was ended. They obviously see something in him.
We all know how Levy's mind works too. He wants loyalty and he would ideally like it on a budget.
..."You'll never sing that"
And Stellini loses nothing by staying on. If we manage to secure top 4 he has that as a feather in his cap if he ever goes for another head coach job. If we don't he was just an interim and it was still good experience for him.
I wouldn't say certainly. Knowing Levy, he'll have one eye on how Stellini and Mason do.
Could save a fortune if they win more than they lose.
Nah, there's no way he's keeping them on.
Only my opinion obviously and I could be way off but my feeling is that he'll go for someone bigger.
The only thing I'm positive about is that it won't be Poch.
It should be the norm for the players to follow the coaching staff
There'll be no reaction mate. You know it, I know it and Levy knows it.
It's how Martin Jol got the job mate. He didn't do too bad.

I think it’s the right thing to say.
In short, it empowers Stellini and Mason and draws a line under the saga. Everyone can stop speculating and concentrate on the ‘mini-season’.
If we didn’t say that, every other day there would be a new link and the players would be potentially distracted.
