Before a ball was kicked at the Cardiff City stadium everyone knew at a win would see the Bluebirds back to second after results in earlier games favoured the Bluebirds.
Defeats for Swansea and Nottingham Forest and a draw for Norwich all played into the hands of Cardiff. Top of the table QPR scored a late, late goal to capture all three points with sixth place Leeds beating Doncaster to secure three points.
It was there for the taking on a run of eight games undefeated at home ….. But it was not to be has Cardiff stumbled to a 2-0 defeat. Cardiff should have been about 5-0 up in the first-half but for the outstanding Ipswich goalkeeper and the crossbar. Jimmy Bullard did it for the City seeing him in the tunnel before kick-off I turned to my son and told him ‘I really didn’t like him’ he is the kind of player who has that goal in him. Two second half goals later I still didn’t like him much.
