Brian Graham and Mark Wilson will continue in interim charge of Partick Thistle until at least the end of March while the club attempts to find a sporting director.

Men's team striker and women's team head coach Graham, 37, and under-18s coach Wilson, 40, have overseen the past two games following Kris Doolan's departure.

Graham scored in both games - 1-1 draws with Airdrieonians and Livingston.

"The appointment of a sporting director has been identified as the club's priority over the recruitment of a first team head coach," said Thistle, who are at the interview stage in that process.

"The board believes the successful applicant should be involved in the recruitment of a new head coach as the pair will work very closely together moving forward."

Thistle are fourth in the Scottish Championship, just inside the promotion play-off places with nine games to go.
