Rivalry

Traditionally, Exeter City's greatest rival is Plymouth Argyle, although they also have a friendly rivalry with local non-league side Torquay United.

Exeter City's last competitive game against Plymouth Argyle was held in 2002 at Home Park in a Division 3 fixture that Exeter City lost 3-0. Due to the difference in leagues between the two clubs (Argyle are currently two divisions above Exeter) it is unlikely that the two clubs will meet in the near future other than in the FA Cup, should Exeter make it to the Third Round which they have done on several occasions within the last decade.

Exeter City's last competitive games against Torquay United were in Conference National ties held on Wednesday 26th December 2007 at St James Park in front of nearly 8,000 fans (the match was a classic derby match with goals, drama, bookings (including the Seaborne-Sills incident) and action from start to finish. Exeter eventually won the match 4-3) and the return leg on January 1st 2008 which Torquay United won 1-0 at Plainmoor in front of just over 6,000 fans.

In the first leg of the Conference play-off semi-finals, held on Thursday 1st May 2008, Exeter lost to Torquay 2-1 at St James Park in front of over 8,200 fans. However, on Monday 5th May 2008 in the return leg at Plainmoor, Exeter beat Torquay 4-1 to clinch a 5-3 aggregate win for a place in the Conference National final for the second year in succession.
