Great. So a competition that already sees a 60-70% drop in crowd figures when compared to regular H&A games will hamper any chance of us getting even a half decent crowd in by compromising our loudest and proudest fans
Even a small group in the shed makes a bloody decent noise. They sound amazing no matter where you sit
Wonder what would happen if we opted to use Dorrien Gardnes for the AFC games? Would the whole grass section be out of limits? Or will be required to put seating in? Asking for a friend

Who has said this? There doesn't seem to be anything like that in the Stadia regulations for the ACL (although I could only find the 2012 one). The only mention of seating etc is:
Chapter 6: Spectator-related areas 29. Stands and spectator facilities:
a) Each stand within the Stadia must be capable of being divided into separate sectors.
b) Seats for spectators must be individual, fixed (eg. to the floor), separated from one another, shaped, numbered, made of an unbreakable and non-flammable material and have a backrest of a minimum height of 30cm when measured from the seat.
c) The use of temporary stands is prohibited.
If true, seems silly.
Dorrien Gardens for AFC would be farcical. Then again, so is having no shed available.
The AFC Champions league has so much potential but never capitalises

Newcastle has hosted both ACL and Asian Cup matches. Their stadium isnt an all seater.
Just have the shed behind the goals like they usually do just on seats instead this time. Whilst not ideal, would still allow the Shed to still be there
Yeah but not much else you can do if they are the rules. Just don’t see it as that much of an issue. We won’t get many to those games anyway

Be the equivalent of Liverpool not being able to use the kop - or Everton and gwladys street end. Still able to access most of the stadium. But lose a lot of soul. A lot of soul
Yeah that’s true. I mean we’ve never had ACL here before and depends on opponent too. The marketing from Glory needs to be on the improve though to get people in, perhaps discounted tickets too initially, instead of posters in coffee shops.
If the right Japanese and Chinese team come here some extra fans who have immigrated will turn up

A group of us are going to do the first away trip should we qualify. Good chance it'll be Japan or South Korea.
Do teams get drawn in sections of Asia? I noticed Sydney and Victory are only playing east Asian teams and no Middle East teams. Is that done on purpose?

Yeah they divide the draw into East and West zones.
Given the numbers Aus teams are pretty odds on the be drawn against a Chinese, Korean and Japanese team (in Fact, given no teams from the same country can be drawn together I think Australian teams are certainties to play teams from those countries).
Doesn’t that make one side arguably stronger than the other? Seems a bit skewed
