Bye berth

The bye berth appeared because of a small technicality in the pre-season berth allocation. Originally FC Ihroservice Simferopol to the last moment was considered as a member of the 2009–10 First League, yet it was given a condition to provide financial guarantees with the suspense time on July 8, 2009 (2pm LST). With the already ongoing

competition that was drawn on July 7, 2009 (just a day ahead), the Crimean club failed to satisfy that condition. The Professional Football League of Ukraine withdrew the club from all its competitions and arranged additional play-off between the second placed teams of the 2008-09 Ukrainian Second League (Arsenal – Poltava). After winning the play-off on July 12, 2009, FC Arsenal Bila Tserkva became a member of the 2009-10 Ukrainian First League, yet the berth assigned to Ihroservice was preserved as bye which was given to FC Kharkiv during the draw on July 22, 2009.
