DAVID MOYES admits he will never forget the manner in which Everton were treated in last season’s Carling Cup as he prepares for another tilt at the competition.

The Goodison outfit will seek their first win of the season when they entertain Huddersfield Town in the second round tomorrow.

They will hope for better fortune than last year, when fixture congestion of three games in six days contributed to their 2-0 fourth-round defeat at Tottenham Hotspur.

Carling Cup organisers scheduled the game to be played on a Tuesday, despite knowing Everton had played a Europa League game at Benfica the previous Thursday and a Premier League trip to Bolton Wanderers.

Everton lost all three games and Moyes led a media blackout by the Goodison outfit after the exit at White Hart Lane.

And Moyes is determined to treat the competition with more respect than he believes his team were shown last season.

“We will definitely treat the League Cup right,” said the Everton manager. “They let us down last season. I don’t forget how they treated us, but I will treat the game as well as we can.

“We’re not in enough competitions to treat them any other way. I can’t turn round and say ‘we win plenty, so this one doesn’t matter’. We will do our best to try and get through.”

Moyes is expected to shuffle his pack after a disappointing start to the season in which opening-day defeat at Blackburn Rovers was followed by Saturday’s draw with Wolverhampton Wanderers.
