Fail and he could well be leading a team floundering further in the Championship relegation quicksand. He is enough of the realist to know that after defeat by Cardiff in the FA Cup semi final on Sunday, the picture is likely to look bleaker before it gets better. Barnsley, with games in hand on the rest, go to play-off chasing Watford tomorrow and then on Saturday to Preston, a team who have found the sort of form Davey must dream of. A point from both or a win from either and Barnsley will have done well. After those trips, the crunch. Davey plans to build the club's survival platform at home against Hull, Leicester and Charlton. By the time those three have been to Oakwell, Davey wants Barnsley safe and sound. Not surprising as last game of the season will see FA Cup finalists Cardiff in their faces again and this time in Wales. Sure, Barnsley owe manager David Jones, goalscorer Joe Ledley and skipper Stephen McPhail one but the stakes are too high and form on the road too low to leave anything much hinging on that game. Davey says he is confident it will not come to that. His message will be: remember the cup glory wins against Liverpool and Chelsea, forget Wembley and Cardiff. Soundbites from the squad seem to be on the same page. Jamal Campbell-Ryce will have wished for just about anything other than semi-final defeat on his 25th birthday. He also knows that it does not do to dwell on the bad times. "Now we've just got to crack on with sorting out our league form," he insisted. "In the end the one goal killed us but I thought we played some fantastic football. We used it well and had a couple of great chances but that's how it crumbles in football. You win some you lose some and fair play to Cardiff, they've pulled through and all the best to them." They had the best of fortune at Wembley, Campbell-Ryce contended, and none more so than goalscorer Ledley, whose ninth minute volley got Cardiff to the final. "I'm not sure if he meant it or not but he's done well, scored his goal and he's the hero," Campbell-Ryce added. "I thought we played some great stuff and we had that fantastic opportunity through Kayode Odejayi, he was unlucky it just went the wrong side of the post. "We've got to pick ourselves up, we've got another big game at Watford tomorrow. We can't let our heads drop too far, we've got to stick together. "It's been great but obviously after the game everybody was distraught after coming so far in the cup. "It was an unbelievable day out, the atmosphere, the pitch - everything was brilliant. It would have been nice to b <div id="ds-mpu"></div>e at Wembley again for the final but that's the way football goes." </div>
