Kilmarnock boss Jim Jefferies launched a blistering attack on his players after they crashed out of the Scottish Cup at second division leaders Morton on Saturday.
Killie lost 3-1 at Cappielow despite taking the lead and Jefferies could not hide his anger after the game.
"Most of the team are believing their publicity a wee bit and think they've cracked it," he said.
"Hopefully it will take this result to wake them up. We have the semi-final of the League Cup coming up and we're in a battle for a top-six place.
"But there are some who aren't pulling their weight.
"We had a lot of fans here and we let them down. We need to go all the way in the League Cup now to make up for that because this wasn't good enough."
