Where can I find an API for the English Premier League? [closed]

I'm trying to build a "fantasy team" site but I can't seem to find an API for the English Premier Leauge. Is there one for free or do I have to pay to get that information?

Thanks!

Edit
My idea was to charge $10 for entering a team and to have a payout structure like a tournament, with percentages of the main pot. Like 20% to the winner, 15% to the runner up etc... Would that count as commercial use?

Do you know if Yahoo's API (YQL) can do this?

I used to use one from Score24, which was awesome.

It's not free though, I believe we paid about 50€ / league / month, but that was 2005.

But it's fast, really fast. There just a couple of seconds between a goal and the XML message they send. Really cool.

They also have the teams with all the players before each game and they give you goals, cards and everything you need.

Have a look!

Try http://www.footytube.com/openfooty/. It's got lots of data about football teams, players and matches, and it's free for non-commercial use.
