I'm running a premier league sweepstake at work with various categories and prizes; One of which is for the quickest goal of the season. I can't seem to find a reliable source for this kind of information online and was hoping someone might be able to help. The last time I checked it was Dwight Gayle for Palace in around 25 seconds I think.. But that was taken from a newspaper. There must be a comprehensive, reliable and up-to-date source of premier league football statistics.. Surely. Can anybody help?

Wikipedia states that the fastest Prem goal was scored in 9.7 seconds by Ledley King for Tottenham Hotspur against Bradford City on 9th December 2000.

According to this site it's Dwight Gayle in 31 seconds, followed by Diego Costa on 35. Both on the same day, incidentally.

Thanks dude, that's perfect. I knew they had to be out there somewhere. I assumed there'd be some grand opta stat centre but i guess not.
