Before the match at Firhill, Thistle chairman David Beattie had admitted the run without a home win had played on the minds of the club's manager, players and board.However, he voiced his support for Archibald and insisted he would still be in charge at the end of the season.
"It's not a pleasant position not to have a home win, it's not pleasant for players, fans or the manager," said Beattie.
"It's usually the chairman saying he has the backing of the board, then the manager goes away - but he absolutely does - there's no question that whatever happens this season, Alan Archibald will be our manager next season.
