Football statistics site chooses Iomart hosting

Iomart Hosting has been selected by football statistics website 11v11 to provide round-the-clock support in preparation for a surge of interest during the World Cup.

11v11 is the Association of Football Statistician's official website and aims to create a real-time online community where fans can discuss the tournament with a Twitter-based application allowing supporters to recreate the terrace atmosphere during matches.

Phil Worms, marketing director of Iomart Hosting, said: 'The 11v11 website contains an amazing wealth of information which needs to be stored and updated so a stable and reliable hosting platform is absolutely essential.

'Iomart Hosting will ensure that it can be accessed from Australia to Honduras 24/7,' he added.

The 11v11 website contains comprehensive data on all 32 competing nations, including a back catalogue of results, line-ups and goal scorers from the past 100 years as well as detailed information of player transfers, disciplinary records, team head-to-heads and an analysis of the top 50 goals scored in the World Cup.

Maintained by a community of football historians and statisticians it has also created an international player ranking system so every player at the World Cup can be judged on attributes such as match performance, appearances and honours.

Results will be updated online immediately after each match so supporters can see exactly how each and every player has performed.
