"What we need to do now is back this up with a win at home against MK Dons, and we also need to be consistent.
"To achieve that you have to work harder than you have ever done and that's our aim."
Cardiff went ahead in the 37th minute after former Huddersfield forward Anthony Pilkington pulled the ball back from the byline for Whittingham to slot home.
Huddersfield were level three minutes later when Nahki Wells fired left-footed into the bottom corner from Jamie Paterson's cross for his 11th of the season.
Cardiff made it 2-1 in the 61st minute when Immers, on loan from Feyenoord, finished off a great team move.
The goal was set up by Sammy Ameobi who unselfishly picked out a teammate when he could have gone for goal himself.
The Bluebirds sealed the victory when Whittingham scored with a brilliantly-struck free-kick.
Cardiff appealed for a penalty when Jason Davidson slid in to bring down Stuart O'Keefe right on the edge of the box but referee David Webb ruled contact was outside before Whittingham smashed home the resulting free-kick.
Earlier Huddersfield were denied a penalty for a suspected handball and a Wells shot was saved by David Marshall before Harry Bunn pulled a goal back in stoppage time.
Slade said: "It is all about results at this stage and it's never easy to win away from home.
"We looked a real menace on the counter attack and in the second half we were quite ruthless."
Slade praised Whittingham and said: "The free-kick was vintage and no keeper in the country would have stopped that. Peter's done really well. It's been so long since he scored I think he'd forgotten how to celebrate".

Need to back it up with a win in a very winnable home game.

Slades spot on with his assessment of the game today
He's right he now needs to best MK Dons

what is that stupid f*cking comment at the end? He's a prick. Can't stand him.
He's lucky to have a player like Whitts, his hand was forced to put him back in I'm only sorry Whitts goals have got him 3 points.

It's supposed to say "I think he'd forgotten how to celebrate!" but whoever copy and pasted it missed a bit.
Still, Whitts has never celebrated his goals, not even the one against Barnsley.

Fair enough. He's still a prick and I still can't stand him.

I agree, but that seems to be the fundamental problem. We get a good away result, bu then go and cock it up with a poor result at home. Those fans who don't go to the away games, really miss the best of what we can do. It's really frustrating to get a good away result and then to see us play really poorly against lower teams at home. I'm not sure why this keeps happening. Away games are just so much better. Maybe it's just our travelling fans who really get behind the boys.

With respect until recently our away form was shit. Before today we hadn't scored in 6 of last 9 away games.

Didn't he give this talk a few months ago about how important points are at this stage of the season? Then went on a dreadful run? I and 1 of many fans believe the points are important from the start of the season to the finish not halfway through a season to the end if we want to finish playoffs or higher you need to be playing from the start not decide points are suddenly more important and need to start playing better half way through a season or towards the end of a season

Come to the back end of the season points are always more important than way you play, Bog standard logic?
He's correct in that respect! No point playing champagn football and losing at this stage of the season is it?

Fair enough. I was thinking about away at Wolves, followed at home to Rotheram, and then the second half revival today. We were also impressive earlier in the season at Nots Forest and QPR away.

Easy to say after a win.
If we had lost he would have said about the performance, its like he takes it out of a book.
