Q: How could Arsene Wengers financial approach to signings be described.
A: As tight as Scrooge Mc'Ducks Arse (Contains a duck reference, a Scrooge McDuck reference (a famously stingy character), a common phrase relating to being penny pinching which relates to Arsenals famous policy of no big money signings and also contains the word 'Arse' which features in both the name of the club and it's manager.

Arsene Wenger goes on holiday and leaves Steve Bould in charge of looking after his pet cat. After three days of checking in and feeding the cat, all is well, but on the fourth day the cat is killed when it falls off the roof trying to chase after a duck. Steve Bould phones Arsene Wenger and says "BOSS, YOUR FUCKIN CAT'S DEAD". Wenger is devastated and has to take a moment to compose himself. He then says "Jesus Steve, zat is a terrible shock. For me, you can not say zis in such a blunt way. What happened?". Steve Bould said "I fed the cat and then he went out into the garden. He started chasing a duck on the roof and he fell off and fuckin died didn't he."

Wenger says "you should really try to soften the blow when something like zis appens - you should have said 'Mr Wenger, please sit down, I av some bad news. I fed your cat as usual today but afterwards he went outside and climbed onto the roof in pursuit of a duck. He slipped and I'm afraid he did not survive the fall.' " Bould reflects and agrees that he should have been more sensitive.

Arsene Wenger returns to his holiday and mourns his cat. Three days later, he receives another call. It is Steve Bould. With some concentration, Steve Bould carefully says "Mr Wenger, please sit down, I have some bad news. I fed Aaron Ramsey as usual today but afterwards he went outside and climbed onto the roof in pursuit of a duck."

Arsene Wenger is at the training ground when he sees Nicklas Bendtner strolling along being followed by twenty quacking ducks. "What are you doing with zose ducks?" he asks his misfiring centre-forward. "They just keep following me - I don't know what to do with them," replies the man mountain. "Well, take zem to the zoo!" instructs his prudent but short-sighted manager.

The next day Arsene Wenger is at the training ground again and once more he sees Nicklas Bendtner being followed by twenty quacking ducks. "I thought I told you to take them to the zoo!" he yells in exasperation. Straight away Bendtner replies "Oh shit, yeah, I forgot."

You all ought to be run out of town on a Rail (Rallus caerulescens)

Paul Merson staggers home from the pub drunk and tries to sneak in without his wife noticing. He stumbles over a lamp, smashing it, and vomits all over himself. His wife comes downstairs and sees him on the floor, drunk, penniless and covered in sick. She says "Paul, I'm tired of this. If you come home in that state ever again I'm leaving you."

Merson awakes at noon, hungover and consumed with shame. He vows to his wife and to himself that he will turn over a new leaf from this day. He resolves to go and feed the ducks in the park in order to clear his head and appreciate the simple pleasures of life.

Three hours later, Merson is in the pub, pissed out of his face. His shirt is covered in vomit. Ray Parlour walks into the pub and says "fucking hell Paul, you're in a state." Merson says "I've done it this time. I was only supposed to go and feed the ducks. I told Lorraine I'd never get so pissed I cover myself in puke ever again. And I've fuckin' done it. It's over."

Parlour is sympathetic and thinks the situation over. He says "I tell you what Paul. I'm gonna give you a breath mint and £20. You go home, clear your head as fast as possible and tell Lorraine that you bumped into me in the park and that I was pissed out of my head and I threw up on you. Say you've turned over a new leaf and you looked after me and took me home and I gave you £20 to get your shirt dry-cleaned because I felt so bad about throwing up on it. You can tell her it'll only cost a fiver so you've made a £15 profit in three hours and you looked after a friend in need."

Merson sees this as his last chance to change the direction of his life, thanks Parlour profusely and staggers home, carefully feigning sobriety and practising his speech in his head. He goes into his house and says to his wife "Lorraine, I know I look terrible, but listen, I bumped into Ray in the park and he was pissed and he was in a dark place like I was and he got sick on me and I had to take him home and make sure he was OK but he felt so bad he gave me £20 to get my shirt dry cleaned and it'll only cost a fraction of that so we've even got a bit more money spare." Merson clumsily pulls out the £20 to demonstrate this, but inadvertently pulls out another £20 note he had forgotten was there. Lorraine says "well...that's nice, I suppose, Paul, but there's £40 there, not £20."

Merson considers the situation and says "oh yeah I forgot, he shat in my pants as well."
