1966 there were 8 stadiums used. 4 of the 8 are still in use...
Cyber pint for the guessing the 4 without googling. |  |

Probably more chance I could name the ones not in use!
Goodison, Ayresome park, white city, white Hart Lane??! |  | | |
| World Cup question if you're bored on 16:05 - May 11 with 863 views | GlasgowBlue |
Villa Park?
Anfield?
Hillsborough?
Goodison park?
edit. Actualy that's daft as they wouldn't use Goodison and Anfield. So swap one of those for Old Trafford. But I'm not sure which one to swap. [Post edited 11 May 16:08]

They used Goodison, scene of several notable matches, including the one where Pele was kicked out of the World Cup (can’t remember the culprits) and the QF where Portugal (Eusebio and all) won 5-3 after being 3-0 down in half an hour (if memory serves) |  | | |

Probably not Goodison park......
Edit. Just realised it is still in use, just not for the blokes. [Post edited 11 May 16:28]

Hungary were the team who kicked Pele out of the tournament. North Korea 3 up and lost 5-3.
Both at Goodison indeed. | |

Do wonder why they used White city and not one of the London club options. Anyone ? | |

I'd say Villa Park, Hillsborough, Old Trafford, and Anfield.
Wembley wouldn't count as it's not the same stadium, although appreciate the others have had significant redevelopment too. |  |

Goodison rather than Anfield? Although Goodison isn't still in use? | |

The owners of Wembley refused to cancel their Friday night dog racing so a group game was played at White City. | |

Goodison Park then. I'm going for grounds that used to host FA Cup semi finals when I was growing up. | |

That's proper impressive knowledge there Radlett.

Although still not sure why they didn't use Highbury, Stamford bridge or White Hart Lane when needing a late venue? | |

Discounted Wembley given the stadium was demolished/replaced. | |

Good question. Presumably White City was cheap & it's location was relatively near Wembley, which might have suited the participants' hotel locations. Still got a 45,000 crowd. | |
