This weekend marked the start of the English premier league with many teams looking to carry on from where they left off and others aiming for a much improved season.

The opening games brought a bit of everything from a shock win by Blackpool over Wigan with a 4-0 in their first game back in  the top flight in well over 10 years

Chelsea came of the blocks flying with a 6-0 thrashing over new boys West Brom which I am sure was a good welcome back for them after returning to the top flight after being relegated the previous season.

Red cards and own goals were also involved in the opening games.
