Partick Thistle add Rangers midfielder Kyle Hutton to squad ahead of trip to Ross County

Sep 9 2011 By Fraser Wilson

PARTICK THISTLE have completed a three-month loan deal for Rangers midfielder Kyle Hutton ahead of tomorrow's trip to Ross County.

As revealed in the Glaswegian earlier in the week, Thistle raced to the front of the queue for the 20-year-old's signature after a proposed loan deal to Sheffield United fell through on transfer deadline day.

Dundee and Falkirk had also been interested in the player who has made 14 appearances for the Ibrox club.

But Thistle have won the race to sign Hutton on an emergency loan deal and he could feature in the clash with the Staggies in Dingwall.

The Jags head north early tomorrow morning and boss Jackie McNamara will be missing only long-term injury victim Willie Kinniburgh.

Otherwise the Firhill manager has a full complement from which to choose as he looks to build on the 2-1 home victory over Queen of the South in their last outing.
