1953: "My highlight has to be our keeper scoring an injury time header to get us into the cup final! Pub cup, sure, but it was still glorious!"
Anon via text on 81111
1951: "My 2008 moment was Robinho signing for Man City. Who would have thought the samba superstar would be plying his trade at the Eastlands! Bring on the January sales!"
Maverick 1875 via text on 81111
1948: "I have to say Pompey winning the FA Cup has to be my highlight of 2008, if not, my life! No-one thought it could happen, United losing to a dodgy decision, but it did and we are deservedly Cup holders!!"

1945: "My footballing moment was when a balloon popped in the dug out behind Fergie, who then jumped in his chair, spoke some French and the bench had a good chuckle."

1943: "John Terry's name may be popping up a lot, but for me, it was Ryan Giggs' penalty - which won Man United the Champions League!"

1941: "The first half against Manchester City hurt our boys. Hopefully that hurt will show itself tonight. All I'm after is a competitive edge to our game. I was always going to make changes tonight because of the close proximity of the two games. We need energy tonight."
Hull boss Phil Brown
1937: John Terry's name seems to be cropping up a lot in your highlights of 2008. I can't imagine why...
1935: "2008's best footballing moment? Messi's goal for Barcelona against Getafe. Diego who?"

1933: "My football highlight of 2008 was Steve McClaren showing he's fluent in two languages: English and English with a Dutch accent. Funniest interview ever."
Wicky via text on 81111
1930: The last team news of 2008 looks like this: Hull boss Phil Brown rings the changes after the Boxing Day 5-1 defeat by Man City, dropping Marlon King, Geovanni, George Boateng and Dean Windass. Sam Ricketts is fit to return to the defence and is joined in the line-up by Richard Garcia, Nicky Barmby and Peter Halmosi. Aston Villa are, quite simply, unchanged from the team that drew 2-2 with Arsenal.
1927: TEAMS Hull v Aston Villa
Hull: Myhill, McShane, Turner, Zayatte, Ricketts, Mendy, Garcia, Ashbee, Halmosi, Barmby, Cousin. Subs: Duke, Doyle, Fagan, Geovanni, Hughes, King, Giannakopoulos.
Aston Villa: Friedel, Reo-Coker, Knight, Davies, Luke Young, Milner, Sidwell, Petrov, Barry, Ashley Young, Agbonlahor. Subs: Guzan, Harewood, Delfouneso, Salifou, Shorey, Gardner, Osbourne.
1925: "I'm a big Hull fan and after watching the Man City game, we need a good performance tonight and at least a point. Come on Tigers!"

1922: "My highlight of the year has got to be Russia (where I'm originally from) beating the Dutch in Euro 2008. As a Gunner, 2008 has been pretty lousy..."

1919: Simple question for you today: what's been your football highlight of 2008? Let me know with a text to 81111 or with a post on 606. Mine will almost certainly be Euro 2008-related, and probably involve Fatih 'The Emperor' Terim. My lowlight is the big man not getting a Premier League job. Please make it happen in 2009. Please.

1915: Hello you. Premier League 2008 goes out with a great big bang tonight (I really, really hope) as Hull take on top four wannabes Aston Villa.
