Kris Boyd is urging the Rangers board to act now and make sure there is a new manager in place before they return from the international break.
Interim boss Steven Davis ended a tough week with a 3-0 win at St Mirren to move the Ibrox side up to second in the Scottish Premiership on goal difference.
The result in Paisley followed a dismal defeat away to Aris Limassol in the Europa League and a 3-1 loss to Aberdeen which marked the end for Michael Beale.
James Tavernier eased the pressure on himself and the team when he fired in from the penalty spot at the SMiSA Stadium after Ryan Strain was sent off for a deliberate handball.
Zach Hemming made some fine saves before Rangers extended their lead through Abdallah Sima with 20 minutes left to play. Tavernier then made it 3-0 with a stunning strike from outside the box in stoppage time.
While Sky Sports pundit Boyd was encouraged by the display, the Gers legend is warning now is the time to act.
«There was an energy about Rangers, especially the young boys,» he said.
