With so many people banging on over the years about the Premiership being the best league in the world, what about some sort of exchange for a season ? Maybe the team that finishes highest in the leagues outside of the European places in the Premiership and say the Bundesliga or Serie A swap for a season ? Ignoring the outcry of the fans of those particular teams for a moment, and assuming some sort of no relegation clause, I can't see why this shouldn't work.

Don't get me wrong, I wasn't trying to promote a super league as I don't agree with the idea of one, just a simple single club exchange deal of some sort. Let's face it, it's never going to happen, I just thought it would be interesting.

The Champions League is a (very good) competition in it's own right, I was thinking more along the lines of a team from one of the bigger European leagues entering the Premiership for a year and seeing how they do, and vice versa. How would a team like Parma or Hamburg fare in the Premiership for example, and how would a team like Newcastle or Spurs do in Serie A or the Bundesliga ?
