As a FOC consultancy for the club and to speed up efficiency I have produced a couple of email templates for the accounts department. Anything to help the club.
Loan Template:
Dear (insert name of club secretary)
We are potentially interested in loaning (insert name of player)
Due to a short term transfer embargo we are limited to paying £600k through the books in annual salary (pro rata) including benefits in kind and agents fees etc to loan any player
However, there's also one million pounds in crisp, unmarked "fifties" waiting for you at the end of the loan in a brown envelope (providing you are ok with that?) You know it makes sense!
Kind Regards
(insert this weeks accountants name)
On behalf of NFFC
Free Agent Template:
Dear (insert name of agent)
We are potentially interested in signing (insert name of player)
Due to a short term transfer embargo we are limited to paying £600k in annual salary (pro rata) inlcluding benefits in kind and agents fees etc to sign this player
However, as a sweetener to this deal we would be prepared to go upto 4.5 years on this deal even though your player clearly has 12 months max left in his locker.
Furthermore - the medical wont involve running on grass and we are happy with players who can give us just 20 matches a season on average. Lovely jubbly ! This time next year we will be out of embargo.
Kind Regards

On behalf of NFFC
(Ps - We might need him to put the kit out once a month but this will be shared out on a rota basis - no previous experience necessary and full training given)
