The cost-of-living crisis is affecting people in many different ways as purse strings are tightened and luxuries ignored for the time being. However, one avid football fan has decided to make an incredibly generous offer to fans of his beloved club so they can go watch them in the Champions League Final.
Simon Wilson has taken drastic steps to ensure Liverpool get the support they need when they take on Real Madrid on Saturday evening (May 28) in Paris' Stade de France by buying what he says is the "cheapest coach in the UK". But his generosity does not stop there as Simon has also decided to charge just £1 for a return trip to the French capital, the Liverpool Echo reports.
After seeing the price of flights and ferry crossing go through the roof after Jurgen Klopp's side progressed to the final, Simon decided to take matters into his own hands and help others who might be priced out of travel. The die-hard Reds fan has previous with cheap travel to Champions League Finals as he drove a £40 Skoda to Madrid in 2019, where Liverpool beat Tottenham Hotspur 2-0.
