Well... there are a lot of clubs in Europe (incomparable more reputable than Malaga) who sold their stadium name to other firms. allianz arena come in my mind right now. Former WestfallenStadium (i don't know exactly how it is named right now) also and now Manchester city plans to do it too.

Looking for images of that 3rd Reich uber-stadium

Need this forum's help because I think it might've been here that I saw photos of the mock-ups that Albert Speer (Sr.) and the Nazis executed on a hillside for a newer, bigger uber-stadium (than the existing Berlin Olympic stadium).

U can repost them here. Danke schoen.

If you mean the Deutsches Stadion then it is easy to search for, like in wikipedia.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deutsches_Stadion


It is based on the Panathinaic Stadium in Athens that Speer visited and studied, but is 3 times its height and uses roman vaulted sides instead of the greek practise of building on hills sides or artifcial hills, as seen above

Is Iraq even stable enough for a huge stadium like this? Or to even talk about hosting major sporting events?

Proposal for old Alvalade Stadium in Lisbon



The wining proposal was inaugurated in 1956 so this is about 60 years old.

note to the athletics and cycling track inside (quite rare, i guess in stadiums this big)

It's a pity the Monterrey stadium is not going to be build. What a nice stadium.

The two end stands at Hibs look pretty much identical to the ones proposed there.

They are. IIRC both proposals were *after* the North & South stands had been
built in 1994.

The second proposal, the one with the two single-tier East & West stands, was
definitely after the N&S were built - it had a proviso for adding a second tier of
5000 seats to both and simply raising up the main roof support to bring the capacity
to 30,000 for any possible Euro Championship.
