The –Rá2008–09 season was Rákospalotai Egyetértés Atlétikai Club's or shortly REAC's 62nd competitive season, 4th consecutive season in the Nemzeti Bajnokság I and 96th year in existence as a football club. In addition to the domestic league, Rákospalota participated in this season's editions of the Magyar Kupa and Ligakupa.
In the previous season they played their home games in Sopron in the spring, but now they are back as REAC and in their stadium, as the lumination in the facility has been completed. The club started the season under the leadership of Zoltán Aczél, who was sacked after the 5–3 defeat to Budapest Honvéd. He got replaced until the end of the year by Sándor Nagy, who managed U-16 team of REAC before. The position could not be kept by him due to lack of UEFA Pro License. The final choice for the position went to Tamás Hevesi, a musician and coach of the Ferencváros women's team. Finally, they accept his resignation after the 4–0 loss against Debrecen and Nagy would be back in charge indefinitely.
The relegation became inevitable for the team due to being in last place almost all season.
