Very true. It was the wrong and expensive way to prove that we were a big and competitive club. Probably something to do with a rich man's vanity.
Of course, the difference with Brentford is that they had rock solid confidence in their recruitment of the next guy...

Being lucky would have been just that, lucky. A get out of jail free card.
I think we can probably all agree the actual biggest mistake is signing the wrong players for too high prices (we've been through the list a million times on here already, so no need to do it again). But I think the more subtle and interesting mistake is that we held on to players for too long. We should never have convinced Bryson to stay when Burnley wanted him, for example. The same with Keogh, Martin, and probably a lot more. We ended up renewing their contracts and paying near-premier league salaries while we were in the championship. And then most of them left for free. If you look at Brentford, they do the opposite - they've moved on Watkins, Benrahma, Maupay and so on, and then use that money to go and get the next guy, while covering any overspend at the same time.

Andronikou was at Portsmouth. And according to a very straight insolvency professional of my acquaintance, it was the model of how you should not do a football administration.

Of course, their pocket is funded through our collective pockets so it really doesn't matter if they do. I suspect though that each club is given so many schmoozing places at away venues and vice versa. Is Jack O'Connell more deserving of that experience than Lisa or Rachel or B4, who spend every penny of their spare money following their club?
And why if he has got time isn't Andrew Hoskin standing in the cramped terrace with the rest of us finding out what supporting a club is really about?
Steve, you want to hear what my gang of mainly female home and awayers think of this whole process.
Wherever we look there are affluent men with all the power and influence playing out their roles in our saga (owners, administrators, EFL) with an arrogant complacency about their absolute rights and abilities to be the ones to do so. No matter what happens to clubs and communities, they roll on through to their next appointments.
We are collectively very sceptical of all of them and whatever happens to us, we need to change the way that football 'business' is conducted. It stinks of corrupt power.
