    &quot;The way Leeds are going at the moment I think it might need two wins. Definitely one at least and that would put pressure on Leeds, who have got to play Derby on the last day of the season and Southampton away tomorrow,&quot; he said.

    &quot;We've got Leicester who are in trouble on the same number of points as us, that's a massive game for us a week tomorrow.&quot;

    Kay reckons Luton and Southend, who Barnsley beat 3-1 on Saturday, are doomed.

    &quot;I think Southend are in deep trouble now and there is one relegation place left and hopefully we can stay out of that. Hopefully other teams will slip up,&quot; he added.

    Barnsley go into tomorrow's match looking to complete a run of three wins in a row for the first time this season.

    Welsh international defender Lewin Nyatanga has left the club and with Bobby Hassell still suspended Kay will play alongside Paul Reid at centre back tomorrow for the first time since before Christmas.

    Said <div id="ds-mpu"></div>Kay: &quot;Lewin is a good young player, that's why Derby County have called him back. He looks after himself, he's very professional he'll be a very good player when he's older. But we've got Paul Reid to come back and I've played with him plenty of times, there's Bobby Hassell, Neil Austin, Paul Heckingbottom, we've got plenty who can do the business and get us a win or two.

    &quot;Lewin and I played two games together and got together a partnership as quick as we could. Paul Reid did it with him as well. Any decent player could settle in well with him and I think that's what we did.&quot;

    He added: &quot;Against Birmingham we showed hard graft and against Southend we did really well. I think we all know what trouble we're in, we need everybody to pull together and I think that's what we did. Now we've just got to do it again against Palace at home and then Leicester at home, they're massive games</div>

    Yes Antony, we also need a massive performance from you too - no silly ****-ups in these two games and we stand a chance.
