# 2008–09 Baktalórántháza VSE season

The 2008–09 season was Baktalórántháza Városi Sportegyesület's 61st competitive season, 4th consecutive season in the Nemzeti Bajnokság II and 92nd year in existence as a football club. In addition to the domestic league, Baktalórántháza participated in this season's editions of the Magyar Kupa and Ligakupa.
In addition to the previously announced 4 NB II teams, the club has joined with 3 more teams in the Ligakupa, their first and last apparence in the competition. The team's winter preparations started with a new head coach, replacing János Kovács with László Illés, who also played as a player during the season. As a player-club manager with an unusual solution, he was replaced by Pál Gebri while he was playing on the pitch. In the last round, ESMTK were defeated by Debrecen II, which allowed Baktalórántháza to avoid relegation.
