2 September 2006: The punishment for the clubs involved in the tumult at Söderstadion during the 53 minute abandoned match Hammarby IF–Djurgårdens IF played 28 September—when home fans stormed the pitch and shot fireworks from the stands—is decided by the Swedish Football Association; Hammarby IF loses the match 0–3 (the score when the match was abandoned), loses an extra three points, and are fined 200,000 SEK, Djurgårdens IF are fined 15,000 SEK.
5 November 2006: IF Elfsborg beat Djurgårdens IF 1–0 in the last matchday of 2006 Allsvenskan and become champions for the first time since 1961.
9 December 2006: The Swedish Football Association decides to increase the number of teams in Allsvenskan from 14 to 16—effective from the 2008 season—meaning that the 2007 season will see only one team being relegated from Allsvenskan while three teams will be automatically promoted from Superettan.^[1]
