I don't understand how fielding a young side is disrespectful, the team was made up largely of players who had won the carling cup and most would be starting week in week out for clubs outside the top four. It also had five international players with the rest all being under 21 internationals, hardly disrespectful, the club has been built on giving young players a chance and they held their own and were argueably the better side against a near full strength Everton team. People need to remember we have already played 15 games more than Everton have this season and we still have another 10 matches to play if we get to the final in Europe, playing a slightly weakend side was needed because of this and it nearly paid off. It's nowhere near as disrespectful as calling Everton a small club...
