KENNY MILLER has left Partick Thistle after the striker's contract with the club was cancelled by mutual consent.

The 40-year-old joined the Firhill club in the summer and made a total of 32 appearances for the club in all competitions, scoring 10 goals.

But with Zak Rudden signed from Rangers - and Brian Graham expected to join from Ross County in the next few days - Miller's place in the starting XI was under threat after a fairly underwhelming spell in Glasgow's west end.

Miller told the club's website:  “I’ve really enjoyed my time at Firhill and would like to thank both Gary and Ian, all the coaching staff, backroom team, my team-mates and, of course, the fans for their support.

Glasgow Times:

"I wish the club the best of luck for the rest of the season and beyond – hopefully Thistle are back in the top-flight soon.”

Manager Ian McCall wished Miller well upon his departure from Firhill.

“Kenny’s footballing CV speaks for itself and while at Firhill he has displayed the same commitment and drive and set the same standards for himself as he has throughout his career," he said.

"He’s scored some important goals for us this season, most notably at Inverness and Dundee, which could prove crucial at the end of the season. We part on good terms and thank Kenny as well as wishing him only the best for the future.”
