So, attempting to arrange a trade when teams are in deficit can be a ridiculous form of 20 Questions, but I think I found a topper. When Hudiksvall tries to trade SS Gavin Rhodes and LF Galtiero Zamperi to Skagerrak for SP Zak Lane and $602,247, "Skagerrak cannot afford the contracts of the offered players". When they offer the same trade but for only $602,246, "Hudiksvall cannot afford the contracts of the offered players".

As a game principle, I think there needs to be a small amount of flexibility even under deficit spending. I felt silly wasting time looking for the turning point, and frustrated to find no happy medium where the trade can take place _at all_.
