Innertube initially posted this link in the 'BF Down' thread, but I'm reposting it here, so that people don't think that Betfair has gone down every time someone replies! :)

They've lost their way, there's no doubt about that

I think BF need to go back to basics, and remember what made them successful

Wonder what would have happened had the jackpot not been won?

Also what would have happened had he laid off some of his potential winnings? Bet the lays would have stood!

I wonder what would have happened had the bet been a losing one.

Would Betfair have said the following perhaps? 'We didn't actually place the bet. Sorry, we screwed up. But the good news is that the bet lost anyway, and we've refunded the bet to your balance, so you're not any worse off'.

And maybe the moon really is made of blue cheese...
