It is worrying the amount of space opposition defenders get in our penalty area, especially from crosses. It seems like Adams especially gets pulled out of the centre of defence to cover for Wilson's bombs down the wing.

Adams was playing left back today.

Perhaps today, but lots of our goals conceded this season have come from crosses, and I think part of the reason is centre backs being pulled out of position to cover for Wilson/Duffy/Hunter playing further up the pitch than perhaps Yates did last season.

I stand by my stance that the results we got in those matches were acceptable given the opposition's position in the table, and the performances were decent.
Today's match was never going to be a walkover, as Northampton are somewhat rejuvenated under their new manager, but the level of performance was possibly the worst I've seen at Christie since Northwich spanked us in the FA Cup a few seasons ago.

it's a crazy system/tactics of packing the midfield with the idea of stopping teams playing through us
opposition teams are wise to this now there getting behind our wing-backs and around the 3 center-backs
a flat back 4 please!
