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.
There won’t just be plenty of excitement on the pitch as Bayer 04 host Borussia Dortmund at the BayArena at 18:30 CET on Saturday. Outside the stadium there will be collection points for food donations to the Leverkusen Foodbank, which will also benefit from the profits of a jersey raffle in the Fanwelt afterwards. There will also be a minute’s silence before kick-off following the passing of long-time Werkself player Dieter Herzog, before two fan clubs are honoured for their decades-long support at half-time and fans receive a talk about Orange Day, the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women. Here’s all you need to know ahead of the game in our matchday news.
