RANGERS fan group the Union Bears this afternoon blasted the Ibrox board for "taking their eye off the ball" as they demanded change.
The prominent supporter group unveiled a banner calling for serious changes at Rangers with reference to the trophy haul in recent seasons.
Citing the 55 top-flight titles Rangers have won - with Celtic winning 52 so far - the display appeared to surface as Celtic close in on Rangers' trophy collection.
Reports earlier this week detailed that Celtic could come within one trophy of Rangers' all-time collection should they land a treble this season. Rangers have won 117 trophies with Celtic on 114.
The Union Bears banner read: "After fifty-five titles you took your eye off the ball.
"Time for change."
Rangers managing director Stewart Robertson and sporting director Ross Wilson were also targeted in displays at Ibrox this afternoon.
Ahead of the match against Kilmarnock, a banner with images of Roberson and Wilson's faces crossed out was draped from another section of the stadium.
The group previously cited a Beale remark in a banner blast over the club's recent trophy troubles.
Referencing Beale's comments on "standards" at Rangers after allowing Partick Thistle an uncontested goal in the Scottish Cup final clash, a display read: "Two trophies in eleven years. Uphold the standards that matter."
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
