Banner project: 3,500 fans send in photos

Bayer 04 last week sent out a call last week to join the ‘Your support for the Werkself’ initiative. Werkself supporters had the opportunity to send in photos to be part of a huge banner of support to be sited in the East Stand at home games behind closed doors. Around 3,500 fans have taken part in the project.

That means more photos have been submitted than there is space available on the 100 metre wide and 20 metre high banner. Given the positive response, the management have changed the layout again so that all the photos can be on the banner of support in the right format. It will be used in the Bundesliga home games against VfL Wolfsburg (27 or 28 May), Bayern Munich, FC Köln and FSV Mainz plus possible home games in the Europa League. Bayer 04 thank everyone who has joined in with the project.
