Fergie Jnr Leads Sack Race Betting

23 September 2010 10:49
Darren Ferguson has now overtaken Billy Davies at the top of the leaderboard in the stakes to be the next Championship manager to get sacked. After Preston's worst start to a league season in 87 years, followed by their capitulation to Wigan in te final five minutes in the Cup, Fergie is now favourite for the chop. Bookmakers have installed Fergie as 5/2 favourite to be sacked but it is a case of whether new owner Trevor Hemmings and CHairman, Maurice Lindsay will stand by their man or look to appoint an alternative this early in the season. Ferguson seems to be constantly bewildered by the fact North End are not winning games despite the consistency of errors still remaining which Fergie fails to iron out.
