Tonight’s Edinburgh Rugby v Ulster match has been postponed.

Forecast storm force winds it is no longer safe to play the match at Hive Stadium, Scottish Gas Murrayfield or any other suitable venue throughout Scotland.

A yellow weather warning is in place for Friday and Saturday, meaning the capital is braced for high winds and heavy rain fall brought by Storm Amy.

Edinburgh Rugby Managing Director, Douglas Struth, said: “We were set to welcome a capacity crowd for tonight’s game. However, the safety of supporters, players, partners, and everyone associated with this weekend’s fixture is of the utmost importance so, while disappointing, it is absolutely the right decision to postpone tonight’s game considering the escalating weather reports overnight.

“This decision has not been taken lightly. We have worked closely with the URC, Scottish Rugby, the Met Office, and local authorities to ensure it is the best-informed choice.

“We’d like to thank our fans, partners and Ulster Rugby for their understanding in this unavoidable situation. Once again, our thanks to everyone who planned to join us tonight at Hive Stadium. We hope to see you back with us in fairer weather soon.”

Supporters are asked to retain their tickets in their app, as they will remain valid for the rescheduled fixture against Ulster Rugby in the BKT URC.
