Mengulas mengenai tanggapan sesetengah pihak yang melabelkan Liga Malaysia berada dalam Gred D, Lazurus hairan dari mana maklumat tersebut datang kerana AFC tidak pernah mengadakan sistem penggredan untuk mana-mana liga.
"Di AFC tidak pernah ada Gred A, B, C atau D, hanya ranking berdasarkan pertandingan anjuran AFC sahaja menjadi penilaian kami.

Bagi peminat-peminat tegar bolasepak tanahair, kenyataan yang dikeluarkan tersebut adalah satu usaha pembohongan dan cubaan untuk mengelirukan orang ramai. Oleh itu, diminta jasa baik pihak Utusan Malaysia untuk mendapatkan penjelasan yang sebenar daripada pihak FAM. Malah, adalah lebih baik sekiranya pihak Konfederasi Bolasepak Asia (AFC) sendiri yang dapat mengesahkannya, yakni mengenai kandungan yang terdapat dalam 'AFC Final Assessment Ranking 2008'. Sekiranya FAM didapati benar-benar berbohong, permohonan maaf perlu dinyatakan secara terbuka kerana membuat kenyataan yang amat tidak bertanggungjawab.
Disertakan pula kenyataan media AFC pada 20 Mei 2008:
[20 May 2008: AFC Media Release:
KUALA LUMPUR: Signaling a new dawn for professionalism in Asian football, the AFC Pro-League Ad-Hoc Committee met today under the chairmanship of Captain Saburo Kawabuchi and recommended to the AFC Executive Committee the first list of eleven (11) countries who will be eligible to field their teams in the new AFC Champions League next year.
Japan, Korea Republic, Australia, China, Indonesia, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, UAE, Iran and India have been confirmed as participants, after a thorough assessment of their eligibility, in the 2009 AFC Champions League to be relaunched on completely professional lines.
Captain Kawabuchi opened the meeting by saying: The recommendations of this committee are based on inspections and long, fruitful discussions and our goal is to create an attractive competition which will take Asian football to new heights.
AFC President Mohamed Bin Hammam said: I am very proud of the achievements of this committee and they are laying down the blueprint for the professionalisation of Asian football.
Asian football needs a big reformation process to make it professional and successful, and I know radical changes might not please everybody. But we must have the courage of conviction.
The AFC Pro-League Ad-Hoc Committee employed four grades A (meet all criteria), B (assured to meet criteria by 1 October 2008), C (not assured to meet criteria by 1 October 2008) and D (do not meet the criteria) to assess the suitability of 21 Member Associations for next years AFC Champions League.
Only Japan met all the criteria and bagged a straight A in all the fields. Ten Member Associations were rated as B which means the committee is confident of them meeting the criteria by 1 October 2008. Six Member Associations received a C which makes them doubtful of meeting the deadline, while four Member Associations were rated D.
However, if the Member Associations short-listed above do not fulfil their commitment, which is to meet all criteria (except for the commercial entity of the clubs) by 1 October 2008, they cannot participate in the new AFC Champions League.
This also applies to the Member Associations who are participating in the playoff .
Following this, the final decision about the Member Associations will be taken by the AFC Pro-League Ad-Hoc Committee in its meeting on 25 November 2008 and forwarded to the AFC Executive Committee for its ratification on 29 July 2008.
The deadline for Member Associations to prove that their clubs legal status has been changed to one of commercial entity is 15 December 2008 otherwise the concerned Member Association and its clubs will not be eligible for the new competition.
With todays announcement, the committee has continued its vigorous activities to develop Asian football by setting up a truly professional league in each Asian country, and at the same time, establishing an attractive continental competition by reforming the AFC Champions League.
The new competition format will allow the champions and runners-up of the AFC Cup 2008 to participate in the AFC Champions League via a play-off, providing more opportunity than ever before for many countries and clubs to become the club champions of Asia.
The current competition format will be applied only to the AFC Champions League in 2009 and 2010, and following these two editions, there will be opportunities to participate for other Member Associations that have fulfilled the newly laid down criteria.]

Adalah diharapkan agar selepas ini mana-mana pihak terutamanya FAM tidak lagi sewenang-wenangnya menipu rakyat memandangkan tindakan yang tidak bertanggungjawab hanya akan merugikan diri sendiri. Bidalan Melayu ada menyebut, 'Terlajak perahu boleh diundur, terlajak kata buruk padahnya'. Niat di hati hanyalah untuk mengelakkan pembohongan yang dibuat secara terang-terangan seperti ini berulang lagi. Semoga kita sama-sama dapat mengambil iktibar dan pengajaran daripada perkara ini.
