The 2004–05 Football League (known as theCoca-Cola Football League for sponsorship reasons) was the 106th completed season ofThe Football League.

2004–05 was the first season of the rebranded Football League, with theFirst,Second andThird Divisions becoming theFootball League Championship,Football League One andFootball League Two respectively.Coca-Cola replaced theNationwide Building Society as titlesponsor.

Wigan Athletic were promoted to the Premier League as Championship runners-up. They had only been elected to the Football League in 1978, had been the league's fourth-lowest placed club in the1993–94 season, and before 2003 had never reached the second tier of English football.

Nottingham Forest were relegated from the Championship to League One, becoming the first formerEuropean Cup winners to be relegated to the third tier of their domestic league – having won two straight European Cups a quarter of a century earlier. Only ten seasons previously, in1994–95, they had finished third in the Premier League, and had reached the quarter-finals of theUEFA Cup the following season.
