As others reported on here. He didn't go over to the crowd at the end. If that's the case glad he is gone. I'm looking for excuses, but clearly the players knew he was off and unhappy. And you can see that in tactics. O Dea for me and I'll eat my words on this has done more damage than good to this club.
I agree that O'dea has been poor for Swansea, but who really cares if a manager (or player) goes and claps the supporters at the end of a game.

Why is that a thing in football, I dont want clapping for supporting my team.

BTW what I do want is a performance full of passion and endeavour and maybe a sprinkling of skill.

I care and many others do. It's a sign of respect for fans who travel
This is not a debate about who does and doesn't go to games. It's out respecting fans who travel the most out of the whole league and put money into the club.

I agree. There's so much noise about fist pumps, clapping, whether a manager sits down or stands up and what he wears.
Send out a team that's organised, plays with heart and skill and all the above is irrelevant.
 
I never thought cooking food and cleaning dishes during the game was more enjoyable than watching us, I caught about half hour of the game today and that was enough.

Why does everybody blame the manager?
Where’s the professional pride by overpaid (Oh no, I have to play twice in a week) prima donnas ?
