"That is the proper way to show respect to a football team," he said.
"Although no-one wants to lose by seven we haven't gone out there to undermine them or belittle them. We wanted to play well.
"Even when we went four, five and six up, my players were still trying to get another goal. They never turned off at any time.
"We would much rather have scored than the opposition but they all count and it wasn't as if we didn't create any chances.
"A lot of people who love this football club want to be entertained. That is what they got."
Taylor believes in the team ethic too much to over-enthuse about any individuals although Matt O Halloran and Billly Munro scored seven between them.
"Those two did particularly well," said Taylor, referring to O Halloran and Munro. "But I was pleased with everyone.
"It is important everyone did well. It is also important that we stick together as a squad and we don't get carried away with anything that we have done."
