Partick Thistle have named Ian McCall as their new manager, replacing Gary Caldwell who was sacked last week.

McCall led Ayr United to joint-top in the Scottish Championship, but has now agreed terms at Firhill where he will begin a second spell in charge. He was previously manager from 2007-2011 and also played for the club.

McCall's assistant at Ayr, Neil Scally, will also join him at Thistle, as will former manager Alan Archibald as part of a new management team.

Archibald was sacked by Thistle last October after nearly seven years as manager, but has now made a surprise return to the club.
