I'm not sure about EPL rules, but playing soccer (football) growing up, I remember that throw ins were considered indirect, and had to touch someone before the ball was technically in play.
Assuming that is a standard rule throughout all of football, then no, your situation wouldn't be a goal, but it would be a goal kick as an offensive player (the one taking the throw) was the last to touch the ball before it crossed the end line.

No. The laws of the game state quite clearly that a goal cannot be scored directly from a throw-in. However, if the ball is thrown in and touches another player before entering the net then the goal stands.
Goals can also be scored directly from a corner.
If a player did throw the ball directly into the goal from a throw-in a foul throw would be given and the ball given to the opposing team to throw in.

Assuming you mean from a throw in..Then no,it's not a goal,but a corner or goal kick.For it to be a goal,the ball must touch another player first before entering the goal.

Well, the fact is,throwing a ball into the net from the touchline is very very very difficult. But technically, if some1 were to do that and 4 some reason the defenders or goalkeeper remain dumbstruck,then i suppose it would be a goal.
A free throw is not defined as direct or indirect in the laws of the game, but everyone takes it indirectly as it would be mundane to expect the goalkeeper to allow a ball to enter his net from a throw -in.

No, it's not allowed. The result will be a corner kick or goal kick.

as far as i know this is alowed.the only goals i have seen dis-alowed are offsides.
If maradonna's hand of god was allowed, then a throw-in should definately be counted as a goal
