Alan Archibald appointed as Partick Thistle manager

Partick Thistle have confirmed Alan Archibald as their new manager.

Archibald has agreed a one-year rolling contract, with Scott Paterson appointed as his assistant.

Former Jags defender Archibald was named as interim boss after Jackie McNamara left to join Dundee United in January, and has won five and drawn one of his six matches at the helm, keeping the club two points behind Irn-Bru First Division leaders Morton with two games in hand.
