West Ham threw down an early marker as well. Within the first minute, Aaron Cresswell clattered into Stuart Armstrong, the Saints midfielder requiring the wet sponge, smelling salts, etc. Armstrong is up and about quickly enough, though, and the game goes on. David Moyes, desperate for the three points today, has clearly told his charges to, er, charge.
The first goal of the traditional 3pm kick-offs in any division is scored by East Fife. Daniel Denholm puts the Fifers a goal up at Forfar. They’ll be dancing on the streets of Farncombe, Surrey, and yes that is a tedious in-joke that about four people in the entire world will get. Meanwhile an early statement of intent by Bournemouth, for whom Philip Billing has wasted a couple of good early chances already. Chelsea aren’t out of the dressing room yet.
