West Ham United will face Manchester City at The Boleyn on the opening day of the 07/08 season. The Irons will begin the new campaign against managerless City on August 11th before travelling to Liverpool for their first away game of the season four days later. Then follow a run of games which will no doubt please Alan Curbishley; following the Anfield clash (which looks likely to be postponed as Liverpool are in Champions League action that week) United face newly-promoted Birmingham (a), Wigan (h), Reading (a) and Middlesbrough (h).
Other big games to look out for are the home fixtures with Tottenham (24th November), Manchester United (29th December) and Chelsea (1st March). The usual busy Christmas period offers a chance for festive revenge against Reading (26th December) and a New Year's Day clash with our whipping boys Arsenal. Once again the Hammers face a trip to Old Trafford at the end of the campaign; the two clubs meet on May 3rd, with the Hammers hosting Aston Villa at the Boleyn on the final day of the season (11th May) a week later.
