Lord Mawhinney (Football League chairman): "England's fortunate to have so many good stadia.
"We have chosen cities which present the lowest possible risk to FIFA and it's FIFA who will make the final decision.
"There will also be a lot of disappointed football fans around the country I understand that - and if I was a fan of theirs I would be just as disappointed."
Lord Mawhinney named 16 venues across 12 different cities, with four in London.
However, FIFA regulations state only three stadia can be used in any one city, with a decision to be made between the new White Hart Lane or Olympic Stadium.
Newcastle/Gateshead - St James' Park
Sunderland - Stadium of Light
London - Wembley Stadium
Birmingham - Villa Park
Manchester - City of Manchester Stadium
Nottingham - the new Nottingham Forest stadium
London - Emirates Stadium
Leeds - Elland Road
Sheffield - Hillsborough
Bristol - the new Ashton Vale stadium
London - the new White Hart Lane or Olympic Stadium
Plymouth - Home Park
Manchester - Old Trafford
Liverpool - Anfield or new Anfield
Milton Keynes - Stadium MK
Three stadia will miss out on hosting games if England's bid is successful: Derby County's Pride Park, Leicester City's Walkers Stadium, and Hull City's KC Stadium.
