Ally McCoist has picked up on some of Wilfried Nancy's post-cup final comments in which he praised Celtic's structure.
Nancy lost his third straight game as manager when his side went down by three goals to one to a triumphant St Mirren at Hampden.
His team were poor once again and vulnerable to the Buddies' pace and power on the counter attack.
However, the manager was admant that he remained satisfied with how he had set his team up.
McCoist wasn't having that and was scratching his hear attempting to figure out why Nancy would have been pleased with it.
Speaking on talkSPORT, he said: "I mean, do we make too many excuses for things that can be caught up in language barriers and things like that? I don't know, but you can't have liked the structure. I mean, that's... You have to say I disagree with that totally (praising structure). You might like one or two things, but for the structure, I'm not so sure I'd be saying I like."

The Rangers legend is still perplexed as to why Celtic didn't allow Martin O'Neill to continue in his temporary role for the games against Hearts, Roma and St Mirren, all of which have been lost.
He added: "I think from the outside looking in, it's been a disastrous start. For the life of me, I could not understand why you'd give... Not so much why you'd give the new coach those games, my argument would be, why did you not give Martin those games? Because they've been on a good run. I think they won, was it seven of eight under Martin?
"And I was quick to point out that, you know, the first thing you'd say is Martin was a safe pair of hands, right? Clearly, Jeff, Martin is a lot more talented as a manager than a safe pair of hands.
"But that's exactly what he is and probably what they needed at that particular time. He could come in and do great. So why would you change it? Why would you run the risk? I couldn't for the life of me understand why you'd bring in a totally inexperienced coach in respect to Scottish football.
"And your three games, by the way, are games against the top of the league, top European team, or a very, very good European team, and a cup final. I find it bizarre."
