Rangers boss Mark Warburton told his side to get their act together after admitting their sloppy showing at Kilmarnock was the worst of his Ibrox reign.
Although the Gers remain unbeaten after four Scottish Premiership games this season, Warburton was far from happy following the 1-1 draw at Rugby Park on Friday.
Kris Boyd fired the hosts ahead before the break, while James Tavernier equalised with a stunning long range free-kick just before the hour mark.
The hosts were reduced to 10 men when Greg Taylor was sent off for a wild tackle on Joey Barton in the 61st minute and Warburton said: "It was not a Rangers team in that first half.
"It's the worst display in the last 14 or 15 months. We move quickly and with quality on the training field but we didn't do that.
"We chose to go long and I don't know why. We have played four games. I understand that is the expectation at Rangers. We draw at Hamilton in the first game and the end of the world is nigh.
"There is no shortage of desire and commitment. What we have to do is take it from the training pitch onto the match pitch.
What we have to do is take it from the training pitch onto the match pitch.
"We have had passages of good play: Dundee second half and today second half. But we have to be better for longer.
"I think we have to play with a bit more belief. We looked hesitant at times in terms of our decision-making. That is very unlike us and we didn't get the ball moving.
"We have new players coming and there is maybe some gelling still going on. But they are training exceptionally well and we have to take that into matches."
Meanwhile Lee Clark, the Kilmarnock manager, was full of praise for his side: "I've got a great pride in my team and in their performance from the first minute to the last.
"They executed our game plan very well and scored a great goal.
"I've got no qualms about the red card, though it was more a result of over-exuberance. Greg is a great player with a terrific attitude.
"He has a determination to do well for the jersey but he's got to channel it. The lads put in an unbelievable shift when it was 10 against 11."
