Philly soccer fans may soon know the name of the new MLS team bound for the Chester waterfront.
The four name finalists each ring of European futbol monikers -- there are no lions, tigers or bears in these suggestions.
The finalists, according to Ives Galarcep's Soccer By Ives blog:
- AC Philadelphia
- Philadelphia City
- Philadelphia Union
- SC Philadelphia
There is no mention of the finalists on the MLS Philly 2010 site but Galarcep quotes Major League Soccer sources on his blog.
The booster club Sons of Ben would certainly like a say in naming the team. As of no there is no word if the naming of the team will be left up to the fans but you can vote to the left.
