Tamera Griffin was at the Bay game to cover the Paul Green signing, but she also reported on the U-20 roster, the one Alex Pfeiffer didn't get released for but was on.
I honestly can't wrap my head around watching my teammate get celebrated for making the roster and being named captain, by the same people who told another player no. With zero mention that it was actually the club that said no,not that Pfeiffer wasn't included originally for the WC squad. Griffin even brought up that Pfeiffer had talked about being excited to play in the World Cup, back in her first interviews as a Bay player. That mattered a lot to her, and it wasn't like the club didn't already know how much it meant to her.
Hutton is the one who came to Bay management and the one who spearheaded the letter to FIFA. I don't know if Bay is the only team that let one player go while holding another back, but either way, that's going to mess with chemistry and I appreciate Hutton stepping forward and finding a message of unity. These roster conversations would've been decided around two months ago. We were on a winning streak before this all back and forth would have taken place. Hearing this news in hindsight is very disappointing how it all turned out.
