    The Charge and the Eagles are getting friendlier and friendlier! Will the Charge move to the new Eagles stadium or stay at Villanova?

    as much as i love to see the charge on grass i cant condone the charge moving to such an oversized staidum...watch MLS, those NFL stadia look like ghost towns with a healthy 15k there...you need 20k not to look deserted...6k looks like a closed door scrimmage!

    No way they are going to go and play in Lincoln Financial Field. The Charge/Comcast payed for half the cost of installing the new nexgen turf at Villanova Stadium. Besides we dont sell out Nova with 11,000 seats, why play in a 70,000 seat stadium with 7000 fans in the stand?

    Also most of the players and the charge office are located around Nova, and most of the fans come from the burbs, so playing in the city would be inconvenent

    I can give you one good reason. No sitting in the parking lot that is the Schuylkill to get to games, especially weekday night games.

    Well, at least for me. I suppose anyone coming from the other side of the city would run into that problem if the games were at LFF.

    I agree that it's too big for our needs. Any chance we can wedge a SSS between LFF and PhilliesNoNameYet?
