Considering a treasonous bet: Preston to beat City + Farke next Championship sacking

From a Bristol City fan in the guardian match reports

"Preston's first goal, after 44 minutes, was coming for 44 minutes: it was they least they deserved, having outplayed City all over. Lee Johnson smoke signaled that he was furious with the slack first half performance by making two substitutions at half time, not even the "right, you two have got 10 minutes to show me something or I'm taking you off." gambit but, if anything, City were even worse. It was like the grim days of Sean O'Driscoll wherein one almost got seasick from watching the ball go side to side and back again.

City had a small pocket of pressure in the second half but the effort and, occasionally, cynicism of Preston got them the win that their superiority deserved. They just had more snap and verve while there was a leaden poverty of ideas from City: too many times they were static and not giving the man with the ball any option but to go sideways or back. Preston had us by the cobblers for the whole 90 minutes."

Anyway, Preston to win 13/5, Farke 26-1 to be next manager gone, not sure what the double on that is, but I'm going down the shop later to stick a fiver on it.
