Both QPR and Norwich drew 0-0 yesterday but Norwich's point was enough to see them go second ahead of Cardiff. The only other game scheduled for yesterday was Preston's game at Scunthorpe. Little surprise to see that one called off after the mess of a pitch there froze.
Millwall had won on the Friday and that took them back above us after we'd gone up two places on Tuesday; Leicester the other team we climbed above.
The Championship hasn't faired particularly well in the FA Cup either. Reading have joined us in the fifth round but all the other 22 Championship clubs have now gone out.
It's back to league action this week with two full sets of fixtures. The first, Tuesday night's games, are behind with the results and stats from this week, the league's leading scorers and each club's disciplinary record.
