NZF had signalled to Voerman and Piney that the squad would be announced on Tuesday, but then have said nothing since. It is amateurish and frustrating.
There is no real value in NZF explaining anything further.
Burgess publishes a story in The Herald, that Bazeley is struggling to get Wood & Stamenic released, some Greek sensationalist tabloid in the quiet football silly season grabs that off Reuters and turns it into a "Evangelos Marinakisstops Kiwi footballers going to Olympics" headline.
As we saw recently with the Greek football owner who came onto the pitch with a gun!, egotistical football owners/managers can take offence easily.
You keep the negotiations quiet behind closed doors. NZF may have been cuaght off guard by a last minute about turn by one of more clubs. Wood was going to be available, then suddenly he's not. Who knows, who cares. The team will be named tomorrow.
