2006–07 FA Premier League

Twenty teams competed in the league – the top seventeen teams from the previous season and the three teams promoted from the Football League Championship. The promoted teams were Reading (playing in the top flight for the first time ever), Sheffield United (playing top flight football for the first time in twelve years) and Watford (returning after a six-year absence). They replaced Birmingham City, West Bromwich Albion and Sunderland, who were relegated to the Championship after their top flight spells of four, two and one year respectively.

The winner is placed into a draw with the winners of Fair Play leagues in other countries. The representatives from the two countries that come out of the hat first are given a place in the UEFA Cup first qualifying round. Since the winners of the Premiership Fair Play League, Tottenham Hotspur, had already qualified for the UEFA Cup by virtue of their league position, their place in the Fair Play draw was given to Aston Villa. However, the places in the UEFA Cup were awarded to the representatives from Finland and Norway.

The Premier League expected to have the league's 15,000th goal scored at some point in the period between Christmas and New Year. The target was reached on 30 December when Moritz Volz scored for Fulham against Chelsea. Barclays, the Premiership's sponsor, donated £15,000 to the Fulham Community Sports Trust in Volz' name. Additionally, a fan who correctly predicted that Volz would score the historic goal in a contest presented the player with a special award prior to Fulham's game against Watford at Craven Cottage on 1 January.{{cite news |url=http://www.premierleague.com/fapl.rac?command=setSelectedId&nextPage=enNewsLatest&id=1572495&type=com.fapl.website.news.NewsItem&categoryCode=NewsSpecialFeatures |title=VOLZ SCORES 15,000TH PREMIER LEAGUE GOAL |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070123083417/http://www.premierleague.com/fapl.rac?command=setSelectedId&nextPage=enNewsLatest&id=1572495&type=com.fapl.website.news.NewsItem&categoryCode=NewsSpecialFeatures |archive-date=23 January 2007 |publisher=premierleague.com |date=30 December 2006 |access-date=17 May 2007 }} The honour of scoring the 15,000th goal led to Volz being nicknamed "15,000 Volz".{{citation needed|date=April 2018}}

On 17 March 2007, Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Paul Robinson scored against Watford from an 83-yard free kick, which bounced over his England teammate Ben Foster, who was in goal for the Hornets, leading Spurs to a 3–1 win at White Hart Lane.{{cite news |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/eng_prem/6437237.stm |title=Tottenham 3–1 Watford |publisher=BBC Sport |date=17 March 2007 |access-date=17 May 2007 |first=Sam |last=Lyon}} This was the third goal scored by a goalkeeper in Premiership history. The other two were scored by Peter Schmeichel, for Aston Villa against Everton on 21 October 2001,{{cite news |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/eng_prem/1606115.stm |title=Schmeichel strike in vain |publisher=BBC Sport |date=20 October 2001 |access-date=17 May 2007 }} and Brad Friedel, for Blackburn Rovers against Charlton Athletic on 21 February 2004.{{cite news |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/eng_prem/3496741.stm |title=Charlton 3–2 Blackburn |publisher=BBC Sport |date=21 February 2004 |access-date=17 May 2007 }} In those two cases, the teams they played for lost. Robinson became the first keeper to score for the winning team in a Premiership match.

West Ham escaped relegation on the final day of the season with a 1–0 win over Manchester United, with Carlos Tevez scoring the winner.{{cite news |last1=Nurse |first1=Howard |title=Man Utd 0-1 West Ham |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/eng_prem/6627803.stm |access-date=3 January 2019 |work=BBC Sport |date=13 May 2007}} Sheffield United were relegated, along with Charlton and Watford. Tevez was subsequently found to have been ineligible to play, as he was not owned by West Ham, but by a third party. Sheffield United sued to keep their Premier League status and, when that failed, went to an FA arbitration panel seeking up to £30m compensation. The arbitration panel found in favour of Sheffield United.{{cite news |last1=Dollard |first1=Rory |title=Sheffield Utd win ruling against West Ham over Tevez |url=https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/news-and-comment/sheffield-utd-win-ruling-against-west-ham-over-tevez-939361.html |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/archive/20220501/https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/news-and-comment/sheffield-utd-win-ruling-against-west-ham-over-tevez-939361.html |archive-date=1 May 2022 |url-access=subscription |access-date=3 January 2019 |work=The Independent |date=23 September 2008}}{{cbignore}} The two clubs subsequently settled out of court for an undisclosed sum.{{cite news |last1=Kelso |first1=Paul |title=West Ham and Sheffield United reach out-of-court settlement over Carlos Tevez affair |url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/competitions/premier-league/4981170/West-Ham-and-Sheffield-United-reach-out-of-court-settlement-over-Carlos-Tevez-affair.html |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/archive/20220112/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/competitions/premier-league/4981170/West-Ham-and-Sheffield-United-reach-out-of-court-settlement-over-Carlos-Tevez-affair.html |archive-date=12 January 2022 |url-access=subscription |url-status=live |access-date=3 January 2019 |work=The Telegraph |date=13 March 2009}}{{cbignore}}

The PFA Players' Player of the Year award for 2007 was won by Cristiano Ronaldo.

Didier Drogba came second, while Paul Scholes was third.{{cite news |title=Ronaldo secures PFA awards double |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/6582201.stm |website=BBC Sport |date=22 April 2007 |accessdate=22 August 2024 }}

With four days of voting left before the closing date of midnight on 15 April, the five players with the most votes in the poll were Cristiano Ronaldo, Steven Gerrard, Dimitar Berbatov, Thierry Henry and Frank Lampard, but it was Ronaldo who managed to fend off the challenges of the other four.

Ryan Giggs was presented with this special award at the same time as the Manager and Player of the Season Awards were given out, in recognition of his record of nine Premier League titles.
