1FC Nuremberg is the first Bundesliga club to name its seating blocks after important players.

FCN-President Michael A. Roth explains the innovation: "We are one of the classic German clubs, and in recognition of our depth of tradition the Presidium and Board have decided to give the fan blocks in the easyCredit stadium the names of worthy players."

The players must fulfil at least two of the following three criteria:

• at least 400 matches for the Club
• League Champion with the Club
• national player

Not all blocks have been named yet - quite deliberately. "We want to leave room for future developments", smiles Michael A. Roth.
