Over here in Spain they have cancelled the next two La Liga match days, as well as segunda división matches. 

Sevilla were supposed to play Betis this weekend too which was originally going to be played behind closed doors.

Scotland expected to ban gatherings of more than 500 people.

Partick Thistle matches are not expected to be affected by the ban.

Ive got flights and hotels booked for the Isreal game in a few weeks. I cant see it going ahead Im afraid. 

Probobly get some of my hotel back, but will have to take a hit on the flights. 

Same with the cup semis over Easter. Cant see them going ahead either so Ill not book anything yet.

How will this impact contracts and pre-agreed transfers. If the season extends beyond when loan deals and contracts expire?? Many contracts align to season end. 

That will be interesting. Games can get moved around but the technical and legal stuff will be more difficult to administer.

Contracts end when they end - clubs could extend them by a month or whatever is required and the player will still be eligible to play. Loan extensions would have to be agreed between clubs. New signings may or may not be eligible - the EFL/PL will have to make a decision.
