    Poor

    This temporary venue for Edinburgh Rugby may be good for the players and able-bodied fans but is hopeless for disabled supporters (if I wasn't such a rugby nut, I wouldn't have bothered!)

    Disabled Access In and Around

    Bad

    There was a broad ramp down to pitch level but no signage and disabled seating was tacked on, in front of the stand like an afterthought.

    Bad

    A distinct lack of disabled bays,and the one we had booked was occupied by he media. Probably best to arrive by foot but even then there is a long walk to the stand.

    Accessible Toilets

    I'm sure there must have been one somewhere but I dared not move.

    They were clueless - was this the first time they had seen a wheelchair user?

    Additional Information

    BT Murrayfield was being used for The Foo Fighters concert hence the change in venue but if as rumoured Edinburgh are contemplating a move to a smaller stadium - may I suggest they spend some money upgrading?
