Last updated : 23 February 2013 By Michael Morris

Of the five teams in the top six at the start of the day who played only Watford won.

The big shock result came at The Reebok where Bolton were 3 up against Hull inside 8 minutes. That game ended 4-1 to the Trotters.

Watford's 2-1 home win over Derby sees them and their unlimited amount of loan players jump into 2nd.

Watford and Hull are both 5 points behind City having played two games more.

Crystal Palace lost at Sheff Weds while Leicester managed a 0-0 draw at Blackpool and missed a penalty in the process.

Brighton are now 6th after they beat Burnley 1-0. Middlesbrough dropped out of the play off places when they lost at home to Millwall.

Cardiff play the first of the games in hand at Wolves on Sunday, ko 2:00pm. The home side are in a disastrous run of form that sees them free-falling to League 1. City need to do a professional job and secure three points.
