Busy fixture schedule has taken its toll on Partick Thistle players, says Jags boss Alan Archibald

Partick boss Alan Archibald admitted the heavy fixture schedule list over the festive period had taken its toll on his players after they were held to a frustrating 0-0 draw with Kilmarnock. The Jags missed out on sealing their place in the top six before the winter break despite back to back victories over Ross County and Dundee which propelled them off the foot of the table and into the top half.
