I tend to have a rule in these situations: not to bet on the team I support, as I'm an unbelievable jinx. For example, after backing Hearts to win the double in early April '98, their title challenge immediately imploded; and I went around school telling anyone who'd listen that Norwich were going to win the league after we beat Villa on that famous night - but we all know what happened then.
But 400-1? Tempting, to say the least... especially as if, by some miracle, we do win, it'll surely be 2-1 (as in Munich, and at Old Trafford 40 years ago); and the script would be written for Martin to get the winner too. Incidentally, can anyone recall a match in which Norwich were 20-1 to win? I certainly can't.
