The Bluebirds are leaving their home of 99 years in the summer, but they will be more confident than ever of seeing the lights switched on one more time for a play-off clash in May after goals from Roger Johnson, Gavin Rae, Jay Bothroyd and Eddie Johnson.

The win puts Dave Jones` side up a place to fifth in the table, but more importantly puts a five-point cushion between them and Preston in seventh.

It was against the run of play when Johnson headed the Bluebirds in front after 16 minutes from a superb Peter Whittingham free-kick.

Two goals in two second-half minutes sealed the points for the home side as Rae rounded Stephen Bywater to score before Bothroyd prodded home after the visitors failed to clear a corner.

Johnson scored the fourth - the first time the Bluebirds have scored four since December 2007 - when he intercepted a pass from Andy Todd and ran through before smashing past Bywater, before the on-loan Fulham striker was credited with an own goal from Gary Teale`s corner for the Rams` late consolation.
