2007–08 Huddersfield Town A.F.C. season
Huddersfield Town's 2007–08 campaign saw The Terriers fail to make any progress for a second successive season in Football League One. Andy Ritchie lost his job on April Fool's Day following a 4–1 defeat at local rivals Oldham Athletic. He was replaced by Stan Ternent for the new season.

The season was also notable for 2 other reasons. One was the FA Cup run, which saw Town reach the 5th round for the first time since the 1998–99 season. This included a win over Premier League side Birmingham City and a rematch against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
The other big story was the handover of chairmanship from Ken Davy to local businessman Dean Hoyle. He would become the chairman after the centenary season.
