CHRIS Williamson will be able to watch his beloved Manchester United in luxury from an executive box thanks to the generosity of a Barnsley businessman.
Football mad Chris, 25, has spent much of his life battling brain tumours and is currently waiting for a scan to see if his most recent round of treatment has been successful.
Illness has prevented him playing much football himself but he helps train a team for disabled children and adults, the Barnsley Tykes, based at Oakwell.
His family and the landlady of his local pub, the Station Inn at Dodworth, organised a fund-raising appeal to help send him to Old Trafford in style.
But businessman Blair Herbert has offered the use of his firm's four seats in the Knights Lounge at Old Trafford for a Champions League clash against VfL Wolfsburg on September 30.
