Sounds good now - watch what happens in 2 years time with the current strategy when nearly all Exchange customers disappear.
The Exchange will look like an Optician's ' Field of Vision test with a few bots biting away at crumbs and unable to eat any money.
All will be left is a small Sportsbook competing in a saturated market.
Betfair now and in 2 years will be like comparing Manchester United to Team Manchester.

good for us that they've given shareholders back some of their cash
I hope they're paying their employees the living wage.
