Rebelling against the status-quo of “big media’s” stranglehold on the world’s sport, founder Doug Knittle enlisted the help of David Mok to create an alternative news source for football fans after he couldn’t find the information he needed during the FIFA World Cup 2006 in Germany. Together they started OleOle to break the mold of old-world geographic limitations and centralized news reporting that tethers large media conglomerates to the 1950’s. These renegades set out to build an online experience for football fans where the fans drive the news and discussions, not some commentator in a suit or a glassy-eyed editor behind a big walnut desk.

The founders shook up the ticketing industry in 2001 when Razorgator, the world first online ticket exchange, went live – enabling ticket holders anywhere to find buyers quickly and securely, and vice-versa. Razorgator quickly became one of the most successful disruptive technologies the ticketing industry has seen, and the concept was quickly copied by dozens of competitors.

The OleOle Football Platform provides football fans a unique destination - unlike any sports site anywhere – to get the real information on football news, gossip, rumors, and media - anywhere in the world. It is the world’s first global social media network, available in 10 languages to fans everywhere. OleOle is changing the definition “media company” and bringing breaking news past the filters, the censors and centralized reporting desks and putting it squarely in the hands of the fans.
