It isn’t as if a derby match needs much extra incentive – but the stakes when Exeter City host Torquay United on Easter Monday are positively huge.
We have seen teams come to St James Park and sit behind the ball and play without committing to attack – but for the Gulls, anything other than a win will mean relegation.
Torquay need to win all three of their remaining games, including this derby match, to stand any chance of surviving in Sky Bet League 2 this season. And, even if they were to complete a miraculous effort to secure...

A scuba diving Easter Bunny was the star of the show at Living Coasts last weekend.
The Easter Bunny swam with the penguins at Torquay’s coastal zoo in front of packed crowds.
Visitors played games of pebble bingo and noughts-and-crosses with the aquatic rabbit.
