By Graeme McGarry


PARTICK THISTLE are still hopeful of signing Mitch Austin in the next 48 hours despite a hold-up in signing off his medical.

Partick Thistle: Lottery winner Colin Weir withdraws funds amid ownership concerns

From the section Partick Thistle


Euromillions winner Colin Weir, who set aside £6m for Partick Thistle's new training ground, has withdrawn his financial support for the club.

Weir cites "uncertainties about its potential new ownership".

The Scottish Championship club had earlier issued a statement admitting that two team buses had been cancelled amid cost cutting while talks continue.

"I can't provide the benefits of significant monies and a facility to an unknown entity or group," he said.

Weir, who won £161m in 2011, pointed out that he had invested "around £2.5m to date, including a sum that allowed the club to become debt-free" and had been backing the new training ground and supporting the running of the Thistle Weir Youth Academy established in his name.
