Max Bird then made sure of the result with a goal in the 81st minute.

Preston manager Paul Heckingbottom slammed the decision not to rule out Hirakawa’s goal as “diabolical”.

He said: “Yeah, listen, we will get another apology this week. We had two apologies for two bad decisions at Millwall.

“We had an apology for a decision at Burnley and we will get another one for that, I am sure.

“And, they will get more games to go and referee.

“There is nothing we can do about it. It’s diabolical, unacceptable and we keep getting the wrong end of them. Hopefully, it evens itself out.

“One of them is saying they have seen something, that they have obviously not seen because it didn’t happen.

There is nothing we can do about it. It’s diabolical, unacceptable and we keep getting the wrong end of them. Hopefully, it evens itself out.

“So, yeah, miles off it. We have had four now in the last seven games or whatever it was, from the Millwall game. But, it’s part of the game and we have to accept it.

“We have been fortunate enough to, although it has cost us points, ride through those.

“We’ve been able to get back in games and get our heads above water. Today, it has affected us.”

Bristol manager Liam Manning insisted his side “deserved the win” after the match.

He said: “I am super proud of the players. It wasn’t pretty at times but I can’t take anything away from the lads.

“The way we defended the box, the togetherness and the spirit after the challenge of going 1-1, to then respond as we did with two outstanding moments of quality – we deserved the win.”
