T&T striker Bobby Zamora opened his 2009/2010 Barclays Premier League goal account with the lone item in Fulham’s 1-0 win over Portsmouth Zamora, who is now a Soca Warriors player having received his T&T passport recently, scored a fortuitous 13th minute goal as team-mate Clint Dempsey’s shot deflected into the goal off him.
Zamora’s new national compatriots, Kenwyne Jones, Carlos Edwards, Jlloyd Samuel and Jason Scotland enjoyed mixed starts to the new season. Jones headed wide off the target as Sunderland began the campaign with a 1-0 win over Samuel’s Bolton Wanderers. Jones, who featured for T&T in its 1-0 Concacaf World Cup qualifying win on Wednesday, played the full 90 minutes while Edwards and Samuel were unused substitutes. Scotland made his Wigan Premiership debut as a last-minute replacement for goalscorer Hugo Rodallega in their 2-0 win over Aston Villa.
Over in the Scottish Premiership, T&T players Marvin Andrews and Collin Samuel also had mixed fortunes. Andrews played the first 55 minutes before being substituted for David Louhoungu in Hamilton’s 3-0 loss at Kilmarnock while Samuel came close to finding a late winner for St Johnstone in a 2-2 draw with Motherwell after coming on in the 65th minute. In the Coca Cola League One, Clayton Ince and Walsall club battled to a 2-2 draw with Southend while Silvio Spann’s Wrexham went under to Crawley Town in the Blue Square Premier Division.
