Loads of people are PMing me regarding how to download the patch so I decided to post a thread with instructions on how to do so, so that way I do not have to keep replying to every individual as it makes it difficult for me.
This hasn't been posted before so you might as well as read it if you havent got the patch yet!

To get the patch from EA Downloader Manager here's how to make it work.
Reinstalled FIFA 09!
First delete FIFA 09 and install it again.
Then after installation is complete, it will tell you for EA Downloader Manager if you aint got it install it!!! If you've got it and it still tells whether to install it or not click on it to reinstall it as this may clear up problems from the past!

After that go to the game and register your game.
C:\Program Files\EA Sports\FIFA 09\Support this is the link go there and clik EAregister even though you may have done it previously but this is important so that EADM recognizes your FIFA 09 as a valid copy.

Note: DO NOT in anyways delete EA Downloader Manager it will be catestrophic as next time the EADM will not recognize your FIFA 09 copy as a valid purchase, which would thus lead in not allowing you to give you the latest upcoming patch.
In registering your game with your EA master account your ready for the patch.
Now do not go to EADM and even if you do it won't help you download the patch as the Home tab in the EADM will be blanked out with a white screen anyway so don't worry if you apparently think that you cannot find the patch from there directly.
To install the patch click on FIFA 09 from your C:\Program Files\EA Sports\FIFA 09 Basically just click on the FIFA 09 icon to launch the game.
A notification box will popup after clicking FIFA 09 telling you that a new FIFA 09 patch is available to download click ok to download it!!! EADM wll pop up and in the home page it will automatically start downloading the patch!!!

And that's it your done! go to the game login with your EA persona and password. If you don't know what persona you have login using your email address and password to EASPORTSWORLD.COM login and check out what your persona is. If you aint got it create a desired persona of your choice. Select it as a default EA Persona ID.
Launch FIFA 09 and register by clicking the username of that chosen (your) persona and password! Type in your Serial number from the back of your FIFA 09 manual. That stage is obviously complete now.

The next stage
Go to online gamemodes and download the latest monthly roster update+download the adidas form update. If you've not, already chose your favourite league one of the 6 leagues for the free adidas trial do so!

And that's it, hurrah your ready to play FIFA 09 online!

I hope this has been very helpful to those of you who have trouble downloading the patch to play online.
