The idea that Waibel wasn't given a budget "until the very end of the window" is obviously false, since the Tengstedt rumors leaked at the end of July, and he wasn't free.
Seems to be a fake excuse Hanauer and Waibel are pushing to try to save his job. What actually happened ...
Like so, he is supposed to jump up and get players with zero. And I mean zero budget? He wasn't given a budget until the very end of the window. Your lack of knowledge makes your comment laughable. Not to mention, have you even thought who the cheapest owner will pick as Gm?
