Celtic fans are being urged to show their feelings towards the club's board by joining supporters' groups in a protest during the club's trip to Rugby Park this weekend.
Brendan Rodgers' men will make the short journey down the M77 on Sunday afternoon to face Kilmarnock.
Celtic Supporters' Association chaired a meeting alongside the Green Brigade, the Celtic Trust and other influential groups on Wednesday night as they discussed ideas to seek change at boardroom level.
Supporters are furious with Peter Lawwell & Co. following the club's lack of transfer activity during the window, which was in part to blame for Celtic's failure to qualify for the Champions League, despite boasting around £60m in the bank.
One of the protest options that has emerged from the meeting, is a call to arms for Celtic fans to boycott the first 10 minutes of Sunday's game at Killie.
The suggestion involves supporters only entering the Chadwick Stand after the 10th minute of the Scottish Premiership clash in a bid to show they discontent at the current goings-on at Celtic.
Now, North Curve Celtic have provided an update, which has been shared by many of the signatories present yesterday evening.
In full, the statement read: "Yesterday evening, a consultation meeting was held with the signatories of the recent Open Letter to Celtic FC. The Open Letter has still to be addressed by Celtic FC despite it representing tens of thousands of Celtic supporters.
"The consultation meeting reflected the second step of acting as a collective movement for positive change at our club and was attended by 85 in the room and 175 online. Comprehensive minutes will soon be shared with all signatories.
"At the meeting, there was an overwhelming consensus on the following points, which were compounded by a survey of 38,832 Celtic supporters in advance of the meeting:
- to build on the recent 'no confidence' votes on the Celtic FC board, seeking the removal of Michael Nicholson, CEO; Chris McKay, CFO; Peter Lawwell, Chairman.
- to build a strategic, escalatory campaign against the Celtic board.
- to build a democratic and representative fan body.
- to coordinate a 'late entry' protest at Kilmarnock v Celtic to further visualise and vocalise fan discontent.
"To help progress these points and the movement generally, a steering group of volunteers is being assembled.
"Finally, we would like to thank all who have participated in the process so far. It is natural that there will be a mix of feelings regarding some actions or inaction; however, the most important consideration at this stage is maintaining, building and utilising support."

It is expected the Green Brigade would display banners over the empty seats to convey their messaging until supporters enter the away stand, with the game set to be broadcasted by Sky Sports.
The results of a fan survey with almost 40,000 thousand responses were also revealed last night.
The vast majority, around 99 percent, have called for the removal of the current board members, and have also advocated for the potential boycott of the club's upcoming Europa League fixtures.
