Agent Labrom Signs Out

Royals defender/midfielder leaves on a mission

Ottawa Royals bade an emotional farewell last night to Agent Marc Labrom, who leaves on mission to South Africa for the next few years.

Prior to a cornucopia of post-match cocktails at Ottawa's Pub Italia, Labrom was awarded the highest honour ever bestowed on a player by his team mates: a light blue Tittenham away shirt.

Agent Labrom has been asked to rewrite the South African constitution prior to upcoming national elections. Specializing in haute cuisine and the nefarious effects of Daquiris, Labrom will investigate ways to include these into ANC party policy. Based in a twelve-bedroom mansion in Pretoria, he is now taking bookings for June and July 2010 (although Dan Deganutti and Ewan Lyttle have already co-opted the gardener's lodge, overlooking the pool).

True-to-form, Marc Labrom did not score during the Royals' 4-0 win over the Internationals last night. He did, however, hobble off the pitch clutching his back.
