True story......
I used to be quite good at pool. A regular drunk in my regular pub had one arm. He lost the other in a bike crash. He ALWAYS lost every game that he played and he took it very seriously. Anyway, it was his turn to play against me and I felt a bit sorry for him. I wasn't focussed and he actually beat me at pool. He leapt around the pub with tears of joy saying that it was the first time that he had ever won.
My mates said to me "nice one for letting him win" but he won straight-up.
When a smaller club plays against a big club I always think the big club players might be expecting an easy win and so ease off, like I did in that game of pool.
