2009–10 North Queensland Fury FC season

The 2009–10 season was the inaugural season of North Queensland Fury. It began on 1 May 2009 and concluded on 30 April 2010, with competitive matches played in the A-League between August and February. The club finished the 2009–10 A-League in seventh place, with eight wins, eight draws and eleven losses, narrowly missing qualification for the finals series.

The Fury signed former Scottish international Ian Ferguson to be their inaugural manager, while former Liverpool and England forward Robbie Fowler was the team's marquee player.

A slow start to the A-League season saw the team fail to win any of its first five games, and record only one win in their first eleven matches. The Fury's form improved in the second half of the season, winning seven of their remaining sixteen games.

27 players represented the club in the A-League and there were 10 different goalscorers. The team's top scorer was Fowler, who scored 9 goals in 26 games.
