You might be interested in some more clean sheet stats.

Our previous worst run of successive home games without a clean sheet was in the 1937/38 season, when we went 17 games without a clean sheet at home. During that run we managed to win 6 and drew 4, conceding 25 goals in those games.

Our current record-breaking run is now up to 19 without a clean sheet at home, conceding 29 goals in those games, losing 11. I'm glad the Cardiff City stadium is a fortress; imagine how bad the run could be if it wasn't!

Our next target will surely be to surpass the club record of 29 successive games without a clean sheet, set in the 1933/34 season by Messrs Wilson and Watts-Jones. That impressive run saw the side ship 76 goals. Our current run of non-clean sheets has seen us concede a mere 46 goals and surely not even the most pessimistic of City fans can see us getting close to the 1933/34 tally.
