Umaglesi Liga 2008–09

Umaglesi Liga 2008–09

Umaglesi Liga 2008-09 is the twentieth season of top-tier football in Georgia. It was scheduled to begin in August 2008, but the start of the league was delayed due to the 2008 South Ossetia war. The first round of games finally took place on September 13–14, 2008. FC Dinamo Tbilisi are the defending champions.

The league was reduced from 14 to 12 teams prior to this season. However, Fb team Ameri Tbilisi voluntarily withdrew from competition in mid-July because of financial reasons. As no replacement team was announced, the league will feature only 11 teams.

Promotion and relegation

FC Merani Tbilisi, FC Dinamo Batumi and FC Dila Gori were relegated after last season for finishing 12th through 14th, respectively. Spartaki Tskhinvali, who finished last season in 11th place, retained their spot in the Umaglesi Liga after defeating Pirveli Liga runners-up FC Gagra, 1-0.

Due to the reduction of league size, only Pirveli Liga champions FC Magharoeli Chiatura were promoted. However, Magharoeli will not compete in this year's Umaglesi Liga because of unknown reasons, so Gagra will be taking their spot.
