Partick Thistle are expected to begin their search for a new manager early next week following Jackie McNamara's departure for Dundee United.
Alan Archibald, the Firhill club captain, is expected to take charge of the team for their Irn-Bru first division match away to Cowdenbeath on Saturday
McNamara signed a new one-year rolling contract with Thistle only six weeks ago. He had taken them to this season's Ramsdens Cup final as well as second place in the league.
