Six of the eight teams between 5th and 12th place failed to win this weekend. Swansea, Leicester, Middlesbrough, Sheff Utd, Reading and Coventry all slipped up.
Cardiff face a huge week. Leicester on Tuesday and Swansea on Saturday. Two home wins would put City in a position of real power. Whatever happens we'll still be in a play off place come 7.15pm next Saturday but wouldn't it be great to be at least 8 points clear instead of just two or three.
That would take some of the pressure off going to Forest on Bank Holiday Monday.
