Football League One 2008–09

The Football League 2008–09 (entitled Coca-Cola Football League for sponsorship reasons), will be the seventeenth season under its current league division format. It will begin in August 2008 and conclude in May 2009, with the promotion play-off finals.

The Football League is contested through three Divisions. The second divisions of these is League One. The winner and the runner up of League One will be automatically promoted to the Football League Championship and they will be joined by the winner of the League One playoff. The bottom four teams in the league will be relegated to the third division, League Two.

Leicester City will play at this level for the first time in their history having spent all their time in the top two divisions. In the opposite direction, Hereford United are making their debut in the third tier after many seasons in non-league and lower-league football.
