Should the manager come to the away end when you've lost 7-0 or let the players take the flack?

Don’t get me started on Glenn Murray not clapping the away fans either

I think he disappeared on about 85 minutes. Fantastic leadership.

Anyone seen Emery at Villa whatever the result home or away he’s straight down the tunnel. Villa fans probably don’t mind as they are winning plenty. I doubt we would care either in that scenario.

It’s tough, but yes.

If I had been there then I’d have expected some sort of recognition even if I was going to get it in the neck.

Then again. On 90 mins I’d have shot off. Not sure I care that much if he does or doesn’t.

it was an absolute disgrace that he didn’t come over. he should be setting the example, not the players. and yet most of them came over, and our manager clearly thought he was above that. the result was bad enough itself, but that’s what’s really taken me to the fence. unacceptable.

He stays in the background when we win, so I suppose it's no different when we lose. Not sure that's much like leadership though. Always looks like there's quite a lot the team is left to sort out for itself.

Even more so after a defeat, especially a heavy one like that.

Yep, that's a shame, he needed to front up and thank the fans.

Our fans have never bothered to support him (look at Man U fans singing Amorin's name in spite of poor results) and, as previously mentioned, he generally stays in the background so I couldn't care less.

That is only because our fanbase is only capable of coming up with one song a season, tbf. We didn't even manage a song for Pascal Gross in 6 seasons!

It's not as if he's been getting dogs abuse despite most home games being shite, getting mullered by Palace, and now our second biggest defeat ever

I thought the way the players reacted at the end was absolutely spot on. Came and stood in front of our fans for a long time. And fair play to most of our fans who clapped them. Maybe the one 'positive' from today.

Fab? Nowhere to be seen.

Edit: apparently he was there, at the back.

He generally doesn’t come over to celebrate either. He said in an interview the moment between the fans and players is special between them, and not a moment for the head coach.
