Barnsley eased concerns of being dragged into a relegation fight with a 3-1 win at neighbours Rotherham.
The Millers, winless in eight – half of which new boss Lee Clark has been in charge of, now look destined to drop to League Two after slipping to 13 points from safety.
Barnsley looked certain to go ahead from an early free-kick which Mael de Gevigney headed across goal but Tom Bradshaw was denied from a yard out by Sam Nombe.
A shot from Harry Gray then ricocheted off Eogan O’Connell and looked like going in before the Barnsley defender recovered to clear off the line.
The visitors went ahead in the 37th minute through Adam Phillips, who swept home a pass from Patrick Kelly.
The Reds got their second after 64 minutes with Jonathan Bland’s superb cross being guided home expertly off the head of Bradshaw.
Bradshaw added another 10 minutes later with a one-on-one finish after more hapless Rotherham defending.
Sam Nombe struck a consolation from the spot for Rotherham, five minutes into stoppage time, after he was felled by Cory O’Keeffe.
