Cardiff are around 7/2 to win tonight, I'm thinking of that insurance bet.

Hopefully it'll end up being the equivalent of throwing my £20 in the bin.

I'm going to do my usual:

- wait till the team sheet is out
- get a rush of blood about how good Yves Bissouma is and how we're actually going to turn this ship around
- lump on a set of very optimistic Bissouma FGS scorecasts
- get even more excited when he blazes wide after 14 minutes
- lose it all on 15 minutes when Kenneth Zohore finds him self unmarked to prod home from 6 yards.

Rinse and repeat with a different opposition clogger.

I think the last time I did the 'insurance bet to cover a total disaster' was the Palace play-off SF 2nd leg. About the same price that night, maybe 3-1. Not sure I can bear to do it again.

If you take the view that if we lose, we're down, you can also get 11-1 on Cardiff staying up on the insurance side.

1) Has Bissouma ever had a shot on target like, ever?
2) I'd rather take the 7/2 on Cardiff to win than 11/1 on staying up. The latter just prolongs the agony, the former opens up the tiny chance that we lose and still somehow stay up.

The other day I put down a double chance on Cardiff at evens. So I'll only lose the money if we actually win!

If they will accommodate you Bet 365 are 18/1 about Mat Ryan and the same price Neil Etheridge to be carded. If either side leads in the 2nd half the timewasting booking has to be a very big runner.

According to this season's stats, yes he's had 4 and a goal. Who'd have funk it? :albion2:
