If I had paid 42 quid to go to Old Trafford to see us field 10 changes, I would of been fuming.

I really hope Burnley beat them on the weekend now, then he'll look silly.

Mick McCarthy, as the manager of Wolves, has every right to field whichever group of players he wishes from his registered squad. However, the fans have every right to receive a warning that this might occur. A guy I know in work spent well over £100 going up to that match and said he wouldn't have bothered had he known Wolves would have fielded such an opposition.

In my eyes it's false advertising and if a team is going to field a weakened team then the match cost should reflect that or at least the match description should indicate there's a risk of a weakened side being fielded.
