Barry Ferguson blasted his Rangers players for becoming "lethargic and pedestrian" in the draw against St Mirren.
Rangers led twice in Paisley but had to settle for a draw in the first post-split match in the Scottish Premiership.
Ferguson was left furious on the touchline as he admitted players didn't follow instructions after work during the week in preparation for the match.

"Two really disappointing goals to lose," he said. "The goals we scored were things that we worked on, moving the ball quick, two or three touches and when we do that we are a better team.
"Then we let ourselves go back into being really lethargic and pedestrian. That is not the way I want my team to play."

He added: "The issue I've got is people don't fear playing Rangers now. Whether that's at home or away, they enjoy coming to Ibrox.
"And then when you go away from home, teams look to see if they can bully you, run hard at you and get in about you.
"And that's something that, again, needs to change going forward."
