New information on fan committee election

The candidates hustings will be held in the Schwadbud at at 19.00 CET on 15 September and doors open at 18.00 CET. The venue demonstrates the club supports the establishment of the fan committee. It will be great if the candidates are not on their own and that as many fans as possible can find their way to the Schwadbud to get a picture of all the candidates.

The vote starts on 17 September at 13.30 CET in the Stadioneck bar and various voting booths at the stadium. Votes can also be cast at half-time at the stadium but voting after the match is only possible at the Stadioneck up to 18.30 CET.

Ballot papers can be downloaded on the website in the next few days. It will make the process much easier if as many fans as possible can print out their ballot papers beforehand and put them in the ballot boxes. The note is self-explanatory. As this is not an anonymous election, the name, the debit number (that is NOT the season ticket number but the 6 to 7 digit number on the right side of your season ticket) and/or the NK 12 membership number must be written on the ballot.

It's very important that the ballot paper is only valid where it tallies with the name and the relevant debit or NK12 number. Of course, NK12 members can only vote if they have paid their annual subscription. Otherwise the ballot paper will be invalid. That also applies to more than one ballot paper being submitted. The data entered will be used by the voting committee exclusively to determine the validity of the votes.

Everybody has at least 11 votes whereby only one vote can be cast for each candidate. The ballot paper will be invalid if there is more than one vote for a candidate or more than 11 votes are cast.

We ask all fans in our fan clubs to vote and give our elected representatives a strong mandate. Of course, you can fill in your ballot paper beforehand and give it to somebody else to submit if you are unable to attend the match.

Black and Red greetings,

One end – Your end – North end

Matchday News #ARSB04: Hoping for historic achievement with strong support

Bayer 04 have the chance to reach the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League for the third time ever and the first in 14 years at Arsenal on Tuesday night (kick-off 21:00 CEST/20:00 local time). To do that, the Werkself not only require a strong performance like in the first leg, but also full concentration until the very last minute, as the Premier League leaders like to score late - as they did at the BayArena last week. Here's the Matchday News.
