The press loves us.
Personally, I'm very happy with the recent decisions Betfair has made.
When Hill left, it was the right move. Why rush an IPO when you've got plenty of cash and the World Cup to focus on? Not the only reasons, but nonetheless important. With a massive 2006 and World Cup, we'll be a much bigger and more valuable company.
Our new CEO (former COO), David Yu, is fantastic and just the person with the right vision, determination, skill and passion to lead this company forward, especially now.
In terms of the Chairman, well, I like Sir Bob, don't get me wrong. He reminded me of my grandfather, and I liked him very much. But like my grandfather, Sir Bob is old-school, and we most certainly are not. Plus, we need a kick-ass CFO, and I'd bet that Bunting's book is full of contacts.
