9:

Scotland
Norway
Macedonia
Iceland

Predictions:

Group 1 - Group of death for me, 3 decent enough teams in there. I fancy Portugal to go thru and maybe Swwden to edge Denmark.
Group 2 - I think Switzerland could progress in this group. Another group with 3 fairly equal outfits.
Group 3 - Fairly straight forward. Rosicky and co should be packing their bags right now. If David Healy can keep banging the goals in, N.I. have an outside shot of upsetting Poland.
Group 4 - Germany to skoosh it. Finland could pip Russia but I doubt it. More chance of Russia pipping Germany.
Group 5 - Belgium are pish these days. Spain to motor this group and Turkey to finish 2nd.
Group 6 - England with the help of a half-decent manager will roast this group. Prob Croatia for 2nd as Ukraine aren't as good as they were.
Group 7 - Romania could take this group with the form the form they showed recently. France will finish 2nd at least obviously.
Group 8 - Tought group. Ireland have the players to mount a challenge. Italy clearly are class in a glass. Bulgaria will be tough to beat. Group of death part II.
Group 9 - Netherland to hammer this group. Scotland will be brought back down to earth and finish 3rd behind Norway.

Scotland to top the group, we're in our prime heading to this one. Average age 25. See you's in South Africa, couldnt care less who finishes second, but since K.Dub sent me the Foo's new album i'll go for Norway, with Harald Brattbakk being there top scorer.

Brattbakk has retired man!
But he was a great goalscorer in his prime.

Yeah i know m8, was just kidding. lol Yeah he was a bit of a joke figure at Celtic, because his style of play didnt really suit the Scottish Premier league and he missed way to many easy chances, but he did score the winner that won us the league so will always be a legend for that one. Does Riseth play for the national team?

There ain't many Norwegians who succeeds to adapt the styles abroad  :-\
Yeah, Riseth plays on a regular basis for both the national team and Rosenobrg, but he's not getting any younger either..
