Another pantomime auction is underway

Just write a cheque out FFS and stop all the bullshit. Ian has told people it's all a load of bollocks with some fake bids because Nikkk loves the drama of it all. Good cause and Nikkk is very generous, but it's all a bit shit now.

Has Timmy the Ghost put a bid in yet?

It's all so laughable, a couple of pasoti multi accounts to make it look like an auction and then along pops the rich man.

Pasoti auctions need a buy it now option, it'd be so much easier.

Whats the point in them, nikkk does that annoying emoticon then bids 5x the amount of the last bid, very generous man but theres no point really advertising it to be honest

Why does Newell start by asking others for bids?

They're obviously so f*cking thick, they're blissfully unaware that they're being patronised to a quite rediculous level.

I do find the process strange and patronising. That's not necessarily Nikkkk's doing. But I would find it unacceptable if Nikkkkkkkk was to reveal his identity. That would be self-serving in the extreme. As it is he is a rich man donating to charity. And, as someone has pointed out on here, he often then donates his items on to other charities. That's good.

could those two be one and the same?


just a thought

They could but I am reliably informed they're not.

It's not really charity though is it Knecht? Paying off money for the multi-millionaire James Brent.

By then donating the shirt to a charity is admirable, as is the large amount of money he is knocking off James Brent's bill, but I just find it weird that instead of perhaps investing in the club he is basically paying off a very rich mans debt for him.

Knecht....genuine question...are you mods on here in direct/indirect contact with the mods on Pasoti,only you guys seem to be reliably informed on a lot of issues.

Rarely do I resort to text-speak but ..... wtf?!

I'm not sure I should even consider that question worth replying to. But NO and piss off!

As much as i'd love to say you're right and that we've just brought down the whole of Pasoti....

You're wrong

Sorry.

Ok I may be breaking forum conduct here and unwritten rules but to quash any rumours like that starting up Nikkk registered on here a few months back but then asked for his account to be deleted not long after.

What if Nikkk is actually Brenttt? What if he is paying off his own bill.............could it be?

Genuine question here also. What odds does it make to ATD what pasoti does in terms of auctions anyway?

He signed up when there was a thread dedicated to him, called 'nikkk'.

I think it had links and stuff in it that obviously he could only read properly from being logged in.

His boss then obviously scolded him severely and he buggered off.

Boss or the auctioneer?

Everyone's entitled to their opinion about anything. What odds was it to Britain that Ethiopian kids were starving?

It's just a common interest we have, like gossiping I suppose.

Because it is probably seen as 'currying' favour with the club.

Which is probably why Pasoti gets its Q & A published on the club website and ATD doesn't....

Oh well it's over and you wouldn't believe it but Nikkk won! £2500, very admirable and a worthy cause like Nikkk says because it helps an Argyle fan.

I did e-mail Ian Newell weeks ago now asking if he could do anything auction wise for the two young children with Cerebral Palsy who need money for an operation in the States. It was originally posted on here by John Lloyd and the Mum posted about it later as well, I didn't hear any more back from him about it which was a shame when the majority of these auctions are to pay off JB's debt.

All these auctions really could be making money for much more worth while causes, like proper charities and people that need money desperately, not paying off a millionaires debts that they chose to take on

So how much is the 'debt' and how much have all these auctions raised, any idea?
What has Nikkk's contribution been?

I can see the tax man having a field day with all this...

Just to clarify the ATD mods have no communication whatsoever with the pasoti mods and there is no chance of that changing.

I added it up once some time ago from his posts on Pasoti auctions. I made it £120,000 then. I suggesting it's in the region now of £200k+. Remarkable really. I'd be gobsmacked if his indentity is not known by Brent. What withe the GTs chipping in Brent has got alot to be grateful for.

I do wonder who he is and what he does. Alot of people owe him a pint! 200k is quite amazing really.
