Rangers supporters targeted Kilmarnock boss Steve Clarke for a fresh blast of sectarian chants on Sunday.
Just three months ago the Killie boss launched a blistering and no holds barred attack on the bigoted bile thrown his way by sections of the Ibrox support.
On that occasion they labelled him a “Fenian b*******” as his side crashed out of the Scottish Cup at Ibrox.
And the same vile chants could be heard on Sunday afternoon as Killie secured a Euro spot by beating the Ibrox side 2-1 in the final Premiership clash of the season.

Clarke was targeted as he sat in the stand while serving a two-match ban for his blast at referee Steven McLean last month.
Back in February a furious Clarke mocked Rangers for claiming sectarianism was a thing of the past in talks after they offered him the chance to be named successor to Pedro Caixinha last season.
He said: “It’s lovely, nice being back in the west of Scotland – really nice. When I was approached by Rangers about taking over the job here I was assured, ‘Nah, we don’t have that in the west of Scotland anymore and it has gone.’ Hahahaha.
“They can call me a b****** or a w*****. No problem, thanks guys. But to call me a fenian b******? Come on.

“My children and my grandchildren have nothing to do this with this, thankfully. They don’t understand this, they don’t need to worry about this. It’s fantastic to be back in Scotland, eh?”
His comments came just days after Killie striker Kris Boyd also hit out at Celtic fans after being targeted for sectarian abuse as he warmed up at Rugby Park.
The incidents led to calls for strict liability - where clubs are punished for the misbehaviour of their fans.
