It's taken some doing, but Manchester United have finally found a way to unite the vast majority of their fan base.
Like any club in world football there is always going to be healthy debate. Who should the manager be? What formation should they use? Who should they buy in the transfer window?
Suddenly all those debates seem redundant in the shadow of a European Super League which goes against all the integrity and hope shared by supporters across the country.
Of course, the proposed European Super League is by no means a one-off and rival footballing authorities can not suddenly be viewed as bastions of the game because their own financial stake is being diluted. Uefa, Fifa, the Premier League and broadcasters are all part of the problem which has taken us to this extreme stage, but right now they are the lesser of evils currently at play.
While there are many moral reasons to oppose a closed-shop Super League, there are also a number of footballing ones too. Ignoring them would kill an important factor in United's own illustrious history.
The reason meetings between two great European sides remain such seismic events is because they don't occur every year. Matches against Real Madrid, Barcelona, Juventus and AC Milan are certainly a cut above the rest, but that is partly down to the infrequency of them - having them every year will make them hollow.
United have played 11 matches against Real Madrid in European competition; from the first meeting in the semi-finals of the 1957 European Cup to Nani's controversial red card eight years ago. They are all huge historic events in the fabric of the club.
Too much of a good thing seriously jeopardises the quality of competition, knowing United would be guaranteed two matches against each 'elite club' would soon lose novelty value, even if a small amount of beginner fans might be initially be wowed by that prospect.
Another important thing to note is that matches between two big clubs does not automatically make for a good commercial product.
This season United have been held to goalless draws by Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool and City - hardly the 'super' standard of football being promoted.
Real Madrid chairman Florentino Perez spoke on behalf of many elite clubs by stating 'the current Champions League is only interesting from the quarter-finals onwards'.
Shakhtar Donetsk did the double over Real Madrid in the group stages this season, while fellow founding member Juventus have been knocked out by Porto, Lyon and Ajax in the last three seasons.
United are another team cashing in on their historic European record to cement a secure future in the European Super League having been dumped out of tournaments by Sevilla twice in the last three years as well as losing matches away at clubs like Istanbul Basaksehir, Basel and Astana - although there is obvious mitigation attached to the final one.
It's natural that elite teams will often meet later in European club competitions given the financial power and greater squad depth they possess, but dictating who those chosen ones are for future years is perverse.
In the early 90s teams like Norwich, Newcastle and Blackburn sat close to the top of English football, they have all been relegated since, because they had no God given right to remain at the top purely based on merit.
Yet perhaps the biggest argument against the ESL is that many of United's famous European nights have been against those sides not deemed glamorous enough to join the top table now dictating the futures of others.
In the Treble winning season there was an epic 6-2 away win at Brondby, four years later a 3-0 defeat away at Maccabi Haifa, passionate clashes with both Rangers and Celtic, trips 'to Hell' to take on Galatasaray and one of Old Trafford's most famous nights in a 7-1 thrashing of Roma.
Ask any match-going fan whether they'd rather trek to the far end of Europe to watch their team take on a side they've barely even heard of, or a corporate meeting with an elite team in another generic super stadium and the answer would be unanimous.
Had it not been for a tie against Midtjylland we might not have seen the breakthrough of Marcus Rashford, and if not for a meeting with Fenerbache we would have been robbed of Wayne Rooney's debut hat-trick.
These matches are all important memories in the illustrious history of the club.
Sure, the ESL would propose some flux with dynamic spots up for grabs, but with no relegation in place for the founding clubs the true essence and upset of European football is lost.
Past achievements and reputations count for nothing when two teams of 11 players meet on a pitch looking to do battle for 90 minutes of football. Anything can happen, that's why we love the game so much.
The European Super League goes against everything European football should be about.
