It's amazing to see them so heavily pursuing a business that was worth £11m to them in H1 this year when the revenue from the exchange has dropped by at least double that. Just a bit crazy.

Betfair have a redirect loop on their site. So many people are trying to access the site it has caused an error because the number of requests is too high!!

You would think that they would have some sort of backup in place for this type of situation business continuity and all that jazz
