is it still the 3+1 rule for the ACL?

So it looks like we have two games to qualify..
Feb 12 vs Home United (Singapore) or yet-to-be-determined Indonesian champions
Feb 19 vs one of four Japanese clubs.. In Japan.

We got Korea 3
Some no name Malaysian team
And a play off winner which will be either Chinese or Thai team Bangkok Utd
If that thing pans out for Bangkok Utd away though....
Long odds that both of us will get through two play offs each
Looking at the format....1st game will be a home game. If we win that we go to Japan. Am I seeing it right?
I think that's how it worksQuote:

Confirmed last night that the Japanese team will be defending ACL champions Kashima Antlers.Quote:

I thought we played the 4th placed Japanese team?Quote:

As either Urawa or Vegalta Sendai will get the automatic group spot for winning the cup and neither finished in the top 3 of the league the 4th placed team misses out all together.
I am in the process of putting together some travel packages for the group stage should we make it. Trying to gauge interest. If anyone is interested please message me with your contact details & advise which games you would be interested in. Currently it will most likely be;
12th March: shandong, china
24th April: Gyeongnan, South Korea
8th May: Johor Darul, Malaysia
If I get some interest, I am hoping to have further details and pricing in the next couple of weeks.
This is obviously dependant on playoff results and actually qualifying.
Indonesia League wrapped up over the weekend, so we will play the winner of Home United (Singapore) and Persija Jakarta (Indonesia).
They play off on Feb 5 and we play the winner on Feb 12 in Newy.
Is this ACL thing still on?
I know it's next week, but there is no ads whatsoever, no news, not even a link to buy tickets... Great marketing here!
the members email from the club today did give a link for ticketing (not open till Wed for members, Fri? for non-members)Quote:

not having a clue who we're playing (even after they announce it) won't help crowd figures either (or it being a Tuesday night)...
I didnt get no damn email.
Gypo Middleby obviously ran out of stamps.
The club hates its fans.
Your not a true fan then. Middleby looks after the true fansQuote:

One of the prices we paid when Antonis scored that winner v Smurfs last season. Had Sydney won, we would have won the GF in Sydney as underdogs, we would have an ACL group spot and Melbun City would get the playoff spot. Even if we lost the GF we still had an ACL full spot.
I was actually disappointed we got the home grand final in a way.
geez Batman how did you come to that conclusion?Quote:

Joke of a club atm.
Jair and Joey C have been left out of our ACL squad
Another win for Ridenton

So Jair missed out
I couldn't see anyone post about it yet. But Persija Jakarta won 3-1 last night. Looked like 1 OG off a free kick and 2 counter attacks goals. Highlights package made them look decent enough to trouble us.

Highlights of the match.
I'm a tad worried, they both look better than if hoped for.
Why is Joey not playing?
Question on ticketing. Both lower stands open only and hills closed. Is it reserved seating or do you plant yourself where you feel like it?
Pretty sure its reserved..Quote:
