Jamal Campbell-Ryce's winner guaranteed Barnsley's Championship survival as they did everything they needed to do by beating Plymouth 2-1 at Home Park.

Simon Davey's visitors travelled knowing that a point against the Pilgrims would guarantee their survival and condemn Norwich to League One football next term.

And the nerve-jangling afternoon did not start according to plan when on-loan Blackburn striker Paul Gallagher crossed for defender Gary Sawyer to head home his third of the season from close range.

Plymouth were inches away from doubling their lead as Alan Judge's effort came back off the bar, but news of Norwich's demise down at Charlton soon soothed visiting fans' nerves.

Palpitations soon turned to jubilation for the Barnsley supporters when Adam Hammill drove home a thunderous strike to ensure the game was level at the interval and destiny was once again in the visitors' hands.

And, two minutes into the second period, Davey's men took the lead through Campbell-Ryce, with the Tykes clinging on to ensure a memorable survival at the expense of Norwich.
