Probably hoping everyone will pop over to close their football positions at crappy sportsbook prices except they limit people to pathetic payouts on the sportsbook it's not even worth the hassle looking :(

It really is a joke, we should compile the list of crashes and put them into some sort of document.
the problem is they dont give a hoots ....

Hopefully long term it will be their downfall
I think this and their attitude in general, will be their downfall. I did a presentation many years ago where I listed the unstoppable corporate lifecycle. Arrogance leads to complacency and complacency to failure. Once the rot sets in, you can't stop it. Corporations just lose touch with their core proposition and what got them there in the first place. It's more dominant in listed companies, they just can't act decisively to stymy the problems.

Is the period when it comes back up not the safest period because they have run all their checks?

I suspect he Exchange suffers from constant tinkering as they get more and more inventive on ways to access it in ways they wouldn't want us to know about.

I would like to see a league table of outages of the top 300 most visited sites in UK to see how many times Betfair qualified for the Champions League.

Anxious moments waiting for the 7:00 to be settled. Will they void it all, only take the in bet but void the out bet, take them both - who knows.

With the last outage only four days ago, trading on betfair is becoming more like playing roulette ......

Their infrastructure people need sacking and/or BF need to dig deep and invest for the future or they will be history in a couple of years.
