A gutted Edinburgh cheerleading squad claim they were thrown out of their training venue by Edinburgh Council in order to make way for a 'priority group'.
Diamond Cheerleaders say they were told they would no longer be able to continue to use Liberton High School gym to practice, despite being picked to represent Scotland at a prestigious competition in America.
Council chiefs have since partially backtracked after a petition garnered more than a 1,000 signatures in weeks. But their offer of four nights a week in the schools's assembly hall, as opposed to the gym has been branded "only a short-term solution and far from ideal" by the squad.
