Too early, again[edit]

As with the 2010 article, I think this article has been created much too early as none of the qualified clubs are known yet. Besides, the AFC Champions League article states that the AFC will release a new assessment ranking "in late 2010". I assume that the 2011 ACL will take this into account, which means that we don't even know which countries will qualify to send clubs and how many each country will send.

It's true that a new assement ranking is in the making, and maybe this page should be used to show this in detail? But i do think this page is needed as leagues in West Asia are nearing a completion pretty soon. For example, in Saudi Arabi, the league's top clubs have pratically sealed qualification already and would be added to the list very soon.

More detail should eb given to this for example http://www.the-afc.com/en/inside-afc/676-afc-news/26193-criteria-approved-for-future-afc-club-events and http://www.the-afc.com/en/inside-afc/676-afc-news/26192-12-mas-keen-to-join-acl These should be added somewhere to show the development of the game and then it can be concluded if they made it or not.

Keep for Reference[edit]

  • Please keep the information below, which can be tweaked so when a decision has been made, we can simply copy and paste into the main page. It would be a shame to delete this material after all the hard work thats been put into it. Druryfire (talk) 16:27, 5 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    • With respect to Australia, isn't the preexisting system premiers and champions (ie. the team that wins the league, and the team that wins the playoff), with runners-up only qualifying if the same team are both premiers and champions? 121.208.18.179 (talk) 07:19, 9 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
      • Yes it is. Corrected that, thanks. —WiJG? 19:21, 9 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Australia[edit]

The assessment ranking for 2009–2010 included a rule that "[e]ach country will receive up to 4 slots, though no more than one third of the number of teams in that country's top division, rounded downwards." The "1/3" part was intended mostly for the A-League which have earned more points than Iran who obtained 4 spots. In 2009–10 season A-League had 10 teams, so if the rule stays on, three aussie teams must qualify for 2011 ACL. First two participants are obviously Sydney FC and Melbourne Victory though I have no idea who might be third one — Gold Coast United as the 3rd placed in regular season or Wellington Phoenix as preliminary finalists. —WiJG? 13:12, 20 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Wellington Phoenix[edit]

Wellington can't participate if they qualify?? Source = http://www.the-afc.com/en/tournaments/clubs/afc-champions-league/29884-afc-ad-hoc-committee-for-professional-clubs Druryfire (talk) 18:51, 27 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Position of Wellington[edit]

from my understanding there were 2 answers to this: 1) They are an Australian team that is BASED in New Zealand and therefore are an AFC club and can participate. OR 2) They are an Oceania club that PLAYS IN an AFC domestic competition and therefore not eligible.

we will find out when the football federation of Australia will allow Wellington play in the upcoming FFA Cup. As this will indicate the status of the club. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.148.199.217 (talk) 21:13, 3 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Erm no, we say this every time and it's even written in the article and referenced!! One of the A-League clubs, Wellington Phoenix FC, is based in New Zealand, an OFC member country. They are unable to qualify for the ACL. So we don't have to wait and see anything. Druryfire (talk) 21:34, 3 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
