Everton goal: Diniyar Bilyaletdinov is the provider again - which is great news for him, not such a boost for me. Jo heads in Everton’s second from close range.2006: GOAL Hull 0-2 Everton****From Phil W from the KC Stadium: "Brilliant finish by Yakubu. Yak is bak!"2003: Giovani dos Santos cannot continue for Spurs after that earlier challenge by Ross Wallace. His replacement is Aaron Lennon, which isn’t bad I suppose.2003: The games in Manchester are under way. Feels odd writing that.
Spurs goal: Gareth Bale is unmarked on the left and has time to measure his cross for Peter Crouch, who stretches a leg out to volley in at the far post.2000: GOAL Preston 0-1 Tottenham****From anon via text on 81111: “What a brilliant day, tickets were being sold for five pounds today for the Man City match, bagged one, and Mark Hughes names a full strength team, amazing!”
Everton goal: Diniyar Bilyaletdinov sets up Yakubu, who curls the finish inside the post for a goal on his first start in 10 months.1957: GOAL Hull 0-1 Everton****1955: Billy Jones’s header is well saved by Spurs keeper Heurelho Gomes. On the break, Giovani dos Santos is clattered from behind by Ross Wallace as he dances down the right wing. Nothing from the free-kick though.From Chris in Manchester via text on 81111: “I am the only United fan who regrets Owen’s goal against City on Sunday. I was at the ground and jumped up to celebrate but so did the fella next to me, dislocating my right shoulder. I fainted and went to hospital to have it popped back in. Owen owes me.”
1952: Giovani dos Santos goes close for Spurs, turning beautifully before powering a shot onto the bar.1952: TEAM NEWS Man Utd v Wolves
Sir Alex Ferguson opts for an entirely different Manchester United side for the visit of Wolves, though he is still able to field eight internationals, with Michael Owen, Nani, Wes Brown and Tomasz Kuszczak all starting. For Wolves, former Old Trafford trainee Sylvan Ebanks-Blake lines up against his former side.1951: TEAM NEWS Man City v Fulham
Man City boss Mark Hughes turns the form book on its head - by only making one change from the team that lost 4-3 to Man Utd on Sunday, with Pablo Zabaleta coming in for Micah Richards at right-back. Fulham manager Roy Hodgson predictably names a totally different XI, with Simon Davies skippering the side.
Villa goal: John Carew provides the cross for Gabby Agbonlahor to produce a lovely, flicked finish. Four goals in four games for the England wannabe.1949: GOAL Aston Villa 1-0 Cardiff****1949: TEAMS Man City v Fulham

Those games don’t kick off until 8pm though, so don’t panic.1940: You know the ‘Owen has just scored to make it 5-3 against City’ joke, and variations thereof Yeah, it was funny the first time wasn’t it1937: Nigel Reo-Coker must still be in the dog house. He doesn’t feature in Aston Villa’s matchday squad to face Cardiff. Brad Guzan, Fabian Delph, Nicky Shorey, Habib Beye and Craig Gardner all start. Ex-Villa trio Peter Enckelman, Peter Whittingham and Riccardo Scimeca are in Cardiff’s side.1934: TEAM NEWS Hull v Everton
Hull boss Phil Brown makes nine - yes nine - changes from the side that lost to Birmingham last Saturday. Matt Duke, Bernard Mendy, Liam Cooper, Peter Halmosi, Nick Barmby, George Boateng, Nicky Featherstone, Tom Cairney and Kamel Ghilas are the players to come in, while Kamil Zayatte and Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink must have done something wrong as they keep their places. Everton have merely tinkered in reply. Russian midfielder Diniyar Bilyaletdinov starts along with Dan Gosling, Tony Hibbert, Jo and Yakubu as Joseph Yobo, Tim Cahill, Steven Pienaar, Marouane Fellaini and Louis Saha stand aside.1932: TEAM NEWS Preston v Tottenham
Preston are without suspended defender Neill Collins so Youl Mawene partners Liam Chilvers in the centre of defence. Chris Brown and Neil Mellor started against Coventry on Saturday but Jon Parkin and Stephen Elliott lead the line against Tottenham. Spurs make seven changes from the team that lost 3-0 to Chelsea on Sunday, with Michael Dawson and Gareth Bale returning from injury. Peter Crouch and Jermain Defoe start in attack, while Giovani dos Santos and David Bentley make rare starts.1929: TEAM NEWS Chelsea v QPR
Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti has got to grips with the Carling Cup in double quick time, handing three full debuts in a much-changed line-up. Yuri Zhirkov, an £18m summer signing from CSKA Moscow, makes his first start, alongside youngsters Sam Hutchinson and Fabio Borini. Meanwhile, Joe Cole captains the side on his long-awaited return. QPR must be really going for it as they make just the two changes for their trip to Stamford Bridge. Keeper Tom Heaton, on loan from Man United, makes his second Rangers appearance, while Argentine midfielder Alejandro Faurlin comes in for the cup-tied Ben Watson.1928: TEAMS Preston v Tottenham

1900: Keisha from the Sugababes, Dave from Chas ‘n’ Dave, Sol Campbell from Notts County: it’s been a week of shock exits… oh wait, you know where I’m going with this, don’t you
