About ExtraFootie

ExtraFootie was launched in the UK in June 2009, following the success of its sister (web)site, extrafootie.be, in Belgium which launched in October 2008. Catering for both French and Flemish speaking individuals, extrafoot.be has been a massive success and has proven to be the catalyst for future development into the UK market.

Offering a diverse range of social networking features, including latest news, stats, forums, competitions and a community fan shop, ExtraFootie is a site which appeals to both anorak football supporters across the country as well as those who merely want to share their own views with the wider footballing community.

Mixed with a blend of editorially-led and user generated content which covers both professional and amateur levels of the English game (all SIXTEEN divisions), from the bright lights of the Premiership right down to the grassroots of the game in the Southern Division One South and West.

ExtraFootie is unique in that it affords users and fans to interact like never before, playing a pivotal role in the sites flair and style as well as shaping the sites evolution and intended direction. Fans can also create their own personal profile, whilst club homepages and supporter group pages, enable users to interact with fans from across the world.

With high profile advertisers such as Coca-Cola and Worldteam as well as partners including Bwin.com (official sponsors of both Real Madrid C.F. and AC Milan), ExtraFootie is the number one footballing site where ‘supporters come to meet’.
