I don't think it's worth it. It's hard to unhear that stuff as far as the public is concerned.
Even if there was a perfect explanation for what happened that largely absolved Mason for the known material, it is not going to make things hunky dory for us with our sponsors and with the media and public. So while losing his career with us would be terrible for Greenwood if we had the wrong end of the stick, I'm more fecking concerned about Man United than one footballer. That's just the harsh reality of a situation where there is no perfect outcome that sits pretty for everyone involved. So I'd take the one that gives us less problems as a football club, which impacts many, many people.
Besides, losing a career with us is not losing his entire career. I also think that if he's honest with himself he'd realise he's better rebuilding himself away from England. He needs to get fit, and get out of the spotlight and focus on football and he'd be far better placed to do that elsewhere. To me that feels the best situation for everyone.
However, I think we do have to do our due diligence no matter what we do. We have to completely understand the situation around the case and the sentiment employing him would garner, if we're doing that. And if we're sacking him we need to be legally informed so we don't get sued. So it's right the club takes it's time.
