Mixed Good Friday Play-Off Results for City

Although their destiny is entirely in their hands, Cardiff City fans (and manager and players if they're honest) will take an interest in other results.

Two Championship games were played today with contrasting fortunes from a Bluebirds perspective.

In a lunchtime game, Blackpool scored 3 late goals to win 4-2 at Scunthorpe and continue their recent impressive run as that was their third successive win. By way of total contrast, Leicester City suffered their fourth successive defeat to go from play-off certainties to the most vulnerable Top 6 side. Those results leave The Foxes just 1 point ahead of Blackpool with 5 games each to go.

Cardiff's lead over Blackpool has reverted to 5 points as their depleted side go into a massive Easter programme at home to 5th placed Swansea and away to 3rd place Nottingham Forest tomorrow evening and Monday evening with both games live on tv (Sky and BBC respectively).

C'Mon City!
