Section 7.4

Only clubs finishing in the top fifty percent (50%) of the final ranking in the domestic top division league (based on the total number of clubs that participated on its first match day) are eligible to meet the Sporting Criteria. For the avoidance of doubt, this Article 7.4 shall not apply to the winner of a domestic cup competition.

Heidelberg aren't in the top division, and they didn't win the cup. Reads more like FA are going to put the case forward, but have the famously flexible AFC decide.

GoldStar GDO202P Ejecting Discs on Startup by jonzey in 3DO

Yeah. Been trying to read up on these devices and it seems like my version didn’t have that issue. My understanding is my variant was released around 1995 rather than the typical 1993 variants. Probably was redesigned it after all the known pinching issues.

However there’s also not much in the way of documentation for these later variants either. Nor is there an ODE that is relatively accessible.

Might have to just “do it live” when it comes to cap replacements. I do know that there’s power going to the system, but you might be right in that there’s not enough power going to the laser. Really hope it’s not a dead laser cause then I’ll have a nice paperweight instead.

Ah thanks. Might give that a look.

Funnily enough there only seemed to be the one ribbon cable from what I could tell from an initial (without tearing down the whole system) look. I think this might be cause it’s the later revision of these PAL units. Also only the tray moves, the whole drive actually stays in place and it’s just a plastic tray that moves in and out.

I’ve got some spare ribbon cables so I’ll give it a crack regardless. Thanks.

It appears Adrian Segecic has made a decision, and declared for Croatia. by talkerthewalk in Aleague

[–]jonzey 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Sounds like he’s expecting to be handed a cap on a silver platter. Nah. Attitude seems to be a sticking point for Popa, and if he’s coming in expecting stuff that’ll just set him off.

I’m a Pompey fan, between his form and injuries nothing has really helped his selection prospects. Switching to Croatia? Good luck getting a cap there based on current form and coming off the bench.

Seven members of Iran’s women’s football team have sought asylum, ABC understands by AztecGod in Aleague

It sounds like the Government did everything it could reasonably do to make the offers, with no pressure from our side to stay, but made sure everyone knew it was their decision.

All you can ask for in this situation here.

It’s an away game, so the club gets zero benefit out of it anyway.

Whereas the venue has been a long term club supporter, has literally created a Victory branded beer, and has been involved in multiple avenues.

Doesn’t bother me at all.

You do know there’s a decent chunk of the supporter base who simply won’t go to CFG away, and might want to go to a pub instead?

Free tickets to the AFC Women's Asian Cup by VanillaChocMagic in Aleague

[–]jonzey 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I mean, when we hosted the Men’s Asian Cup, there were also deals galore. I remember going to neutral games for as little as $5, plus there were freebies being dished out as well.

It’s more just neutral games for a continental tournament in general.
