Fast Web Media, the operator of a number of sports websites including 4thegame.com has bought football chat room website www.footballforums.net .
Footballforums claims 26,000 regular users a month. Its previous parent, Fanbanta went into administration. The consideration has not been disclosed.
Fast Web Media, based in Manchester, is a subsidiary of Total Sports Online, a Norwegian company which has recently delisted from the Oslo exchange.
Total Sports bought Fast Web Media in 1998. The company currently employs over 30 staff in Manchester.
In addition to owning and managing sports websites, Fast Web also offers digital marketing services to companies in the UK and overseas.
4thegame.com claims to be one of the longest established and most popular football websites in the world with over one million unique visitors a month. Fast Web launched the site twelve years ago.
Michael Flynn, CEO of Fast Web Media, said: “We are delighted with the acquisition.
“FootballForums.net is already one of the biggest and best places to discuss all things football. In the future Fast Web Media want to build on this strength and passion to make it a must-visit site for any football fan.”
