The Rams are locked in a dispute with Young Lions Agu Casmir & Itimi Dickson over the cost of repairs for damages to an apartment the club rented for the duo last season.

Both Lions Agu Casmir & Itimi Dickson were with the Rams last season before being recruited for the Young Lions this season. They had moved to a new apartment when they signed with the Young Lions

The Rams demanded that the duo pay $5000 for repairs to the condominium at Woodgrove Apartment. It is understood that furniture, air conditioning system, toilet fittings & paintwork in various areas were among the damages in the apartment.

Rams manager Lawrence Lau had wrote to FAS asking for their assistance in getting the amount demanded from the 2 players.

When demanded to know why the Rams took such a long time to file the claim against the duo Lawrence Lau explained it was a result that only recently a contractor was sought to repair the damages. To back them up, photos of the apartment when they left were also presented.

FAS had also sought an explanation from the duo after the matter was brought up to their attention with the duo denying any wrongdoing in the matter.

FAS are currently investigating the matter.
