The 2007–08 season was Football Club Sopron's 8th consecutive season in the Nemzeti Bajnokság I and 86th year in existence as a football club. In addition to the domestic league, Sopron participated in this season's editions of the Magyar Kupa and the Ligakupa.

On 4 January 2008, the First Level Licensing Body of the HFF revoked the license of the club due to debt to the Tax and Financial Control Administration, the players, and also to the Federation. An agreement has been made with Rákospalotai EAC, the football club from Budapest, to play its home games in the spring in Sopron due to the missing illumination of the Budai II. László Stadion. The people of the city could still attend top-tier football games.[3] On 5 February 2008, the Disciplinary Committee excluded Sopron from the first division for not having a license as per the regulations of the competition. It became official on 19 February 2008, after they refused to appeal against the first instance decision. After the exclusion, the matches were registered with an automatic 3 points and goal difference of 3–0 to the opponent team.[4]
