During the 2008–09 English football season, Charlton Athletic F.C. competed in the Football League Championship. It was their second consecutive season at this level since relegation from the FA Premier League at the end of the 2006–07 season.

Season summary

Charlton were tipped to make a strong challenge for promotion, but it all went wrong for the Addicks and by the time manager Alan Pardew was sacked in November the club was in serious danger of a second relegation in three seasons. He was replaced with former Colchester United manager Phil Parkinson, but he was unable to save Charlton from falling into English football's third tier for the first time since 1981, coming in last place 12 points adrift of safety.
