Edinburgh Rugby planning application for Murrayfield back pitches

Edinburgh Rugby (the professional club) have submitted a planning application for a 7,800 capacity stadium on Murrayfield’s back pitches.

The relationship between this development and the ejection of Murrayfield Wanderers (the non-professional club) from Murrayfield is unclear.  Murrayfield Wanderers are controversially interested in relocating to Roseburn Park.
