I'm not sure what that means, really

I'm not sure I'd be 'disrespecting' Orient, because I wouldn't be assuming that XI would beat them - it might not. Just that I wouldn't be that upset if it didn't.

in terms of disrespecting the competition - I would rather have a real run at a successful season in the league, rather than try to get a run to the 5th run or something, before losing to a mid-table premiership side. If that's disrespecting the FA Cup, then fair enough. Just a personal preference.
