There hasn't been a squirting flower "5% for all" thread for months now. It reminds me of the story of convicted criminals queuing up to have their appeals against the length of their sentences heard. First one up had 4 years added to his and the rest withdrew their appeals.

apparently you are immune to such pragmatism.

It's blindingly obvious to anyone with a functioning braincell that treating everybody the same would be much fairer that it doesn't need to be repeated any more.

what or who is a calimero..

Calimero is a Japanese anime series (based on an Italian creation) about a charming, but hapless anthropomorphized cartoon chicken; the only black one in a family of yellow chickens. He wears half of his egg shell still on his head.

The characters were created by Nino and Toni Pagot and originated as a series of animated advertisements shown throughout Italy. The characters were later licensed in Japan as an anime series, twice. The first was made by Toei Animation and ran from October 15, 1974 to September 30, 1975, and the second, with new settings and characters, was made in 1992 . Altogether, 99 Japanese episodes were made (47 in the 1974 Toei series, and 52 in the 1992 series).

The series mostly consists of the many adventures of Calimero and his friends as they solve mysteries and make documentaries. However, their adventures usually get them into quite a bit of trouble.


before and after my time.. so what has this got to do with betfair?

It's blindingly obvious to anyone with a functioning braincell that charging a flat 5% would be the end of betfair.


Calimero's favourite saying was "It is an injustice it is".

thanks feck, so you think paying PC is a necessary side effect of keeping betfair alive and liquid?

ocean, there was a need to bring the parasites and cheats (many of whom were paying as little as 4% of their gross profit) more into line with gamblers who were paying much more. Personally I would have thought the best way forward would've been to get rid of the parasites and cheats. The pc deters new customers and makes a complex commission system even more complex. To think it took them 7 years to dream up such a crock of sh1te.

Feck are you saying with regards to BF's charging system "It's an injustice it is?"

Sorry i just had to ask it.

U.A., the phrase only works when those who pay least are the ones who endlessly quote it.
