Rangers ultras group, the 'Union Bears', have released a t-shirt which gives a nod to the tifo they unveiled against Celtic on Sunday.
Pre-match, a banner spanning the Copland Road stand was raised, with a picture of Graeme Souness holding a shotgun. The words 'Take aim at the rebel scum' were visible below.

Rangers hit out at the statement and deemed it 'unacceptable'. It is now the subject of a probe by the authorities, with Police Scotland seizing the banner.
The Union Bears have since taken to X, revealing t-shirts of the banner that can be pre-ordered, from sizes small to 4xl, for £20.

A Police Scotland spokesperson said: "We are aware of the banner and enquiries are ongoing."
Similarly, Rangers reacted to the banner after yesterday's match. "We also acknowledge that the tifo displayed prior to kick-off crossed a line and was unacceptable," a club spokesperson said.
"Our approach to supporter displays has always been built on trust, with the responsibility placed on groups to exercise good judgement.
"We will reflect on how these displays are managed and engage with supporter groups to ensure the right balance of trust, responsibility and oversight is maintained moving forward.
"Rangers is proud of its passionate fanbase, and we all share a duty to protect the standards and reputation of our club."
Rangers return to action next weekend when Aberdeen visit Ibrox in the third round of Scottish Premiership post-split fixtures.
