Can you imagine the world today without social media? Would you like to see that? We definitely wouldn’t! We love social media! Because Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat and co. provides us with the opportunity to communicate and interact with our fans that was not available in the predigital age. We grow closer together and can exchange opinions whenever we want. And it is clear there is now a huge Bayer 04 community that shares a passion or at least a liking for the Werkself.
That is why we are providing loads of space for social media on our new website. And, indeed, in a wide range of areas. For example in the shape of social hubs. That means presenting groups of posts on the most popular channels such as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. Such social hubs can also be found on the players' pages. Our Werkself lads are avid users of digital communication. So the player page provides a social hub that includes the official channels of our pros. We also do the same on the Bayer 04 Women's page.
Our home page has a social hub with a selection of the most up-to-date and cool posts on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. In the fan zone, we also present Bayer 04 fan information (Facebook). And, on the matchday pages, contributions with the match hashtag are visible for the relevant games.
That means our fans can enjoy the colourful social media world of Bayer 04 at a glance without being actively involved on the particular platforms and without having to search too much.
A special award for special social commitment. At this year's ceremony for the Sepp Herberger Awards in Wolfsburg on Monday night, the DFB Sepp Herberger Foundation recognised Bayer 04 in the social rehabilitation category. The Bundesliga club received the prize, together with €12,000, for its great service to inmates, particularly in the Wuppertal-Ronsdorf prison.

The Bundesliga home game against VfL Wolfsburg in the first half of the season was one of those classic ‘days to forget’ for Bayer 04 Women. It started with goalkeeper Charlotte Voll being shown a red card in the first minute of the game, and following a further sending-off, coach Roberto Pätzold's 9-women side ended up losing 5-1 to last season's runners-up. At 18.30 CET on Sunday, they'll have the chance to exact revenge at the AOK Stadium - and pick up valuable points in the race for third place.

After full time in the 1-1 draw against FC Bayern Munich, the Bayer 04 fans first had to catch their breath. Firstly because of their usual loud support, and secondly because of the great drama they'd witnessed on the pitch: three disallowed goals, two red cards and a Werkself side who "again produced a very good performance against strong opponents", as head coach Kasper Hjulmand described. The Dane was particularly enthused by the performance of young Montrell Culbreath, while Patrik Schick got to enjoy his 200th appearance under the Cross. The Werkself Review unpacks the action.
