NOIRTHAMPTON TOWN manager Jon Brady lamented his side’s vulnerability from crosses and believes they were too soft to play against versus an aggressive Wrexham side.

The high-flying Reds won 4-1 at The Racecourse on Saturday with all four goals coming from crosses.

Cobblers boss Brady said: “I would say that we conceded too many crosses. We knew what they were all about in terms of how they split your backline pretty hard and our idea was to get out of those crosses and really nullify them.

“To concede four goals from crosses when we worked on it, defending down our left-hand side in the first half was nowhere near good enough.

“It was almost passive to stop crosses and that’s not what we wanted.

“They were aggressive. It was just disappointing to see and in my whole time here, I don’t feel that we’ve been that easy to roll over.

“Make no bones about it, they’re a really good side, they’ve got top strikers, top players all over the pitch, but we’re in the game at 2-1.

“We’re creating chances but we’re too soft at the moment to play against. It’s too easy to score against us. I take full responsibility and I’ve got to get that right.”
