[Albion] Bets for tonight

[Simster]

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.

Yeah I have gone for this one

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.

When it happens for us it's going to be SPECTACULAR

Similar to his one in the pre season friendly but he has got nowhere near the goal since.

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

Where are these stats from if you don't mind me asking?
