Burnley are 15th, 4 points behind City.
Wigan lead the table after tearing Crystal Palace apart 5 - 0 at a deserted JJB. Less than 7,000 saw the Latics, maybethey'll use the excuse it was live on Sky.
West Brom missed the chance to be top when they were held 0 - 0 at home by Sunderland. By all acounts Sunderland were unlucky not to take all three points as West Brom were overrun by the Black Cats.
Norwich move into third place after a 3 - 1 win at Walsall. Sheff Utd are 5th. They were 2 down at Stoke (who come to Cardiff next week) but came back to earn a draw with Jack Lester scoring an injury time penalty to level.
Shock of the day came at Portman Rd. Gillingham beat Ipswich 4 - 3. After losing a 3 - 1 lead Gillingham won the game in injury time.
The basement battle in Milton Keynes saw Wimbledon come from a goal down to beat Bradford 2 - 1.
