Obviously the turf didn’t help, but, seriously, what did Horan have left to pull her back here? She’s BTDT. Hard to see how the softest lush practice pitch would have helped all that much unless she had a challenge in this league and personal ties to motivate her instead of the other way around…
Her family is still in the US. Europe is great, but living in different time zones can be problematic. My guess is she said it because others complain about it. If the Thorns are the world class franchise they claim to be, a grass field to practice on seems like a minimum
Paulson deciding not to make the grass fields available to the Thorns has cost us one great player. I’d prefer it not to cost us others. Sell the team
