After a wait of two-and-a-half years one of the fiercest rivalries in English football returns on Thursday night as Exeter City host Plymouth Argyle. In a county far away from most other football clubs and more known for holidays and cream teas the Devon derby is a huge deal - Exeter's St James Park sold out weeks ago and the game is live on television.

"We will do everything possible to support Bim and hold those responsible to account," a Plymouth statement, external said. "Why did he receive these messages? Because he didn't score a penalty in a football match. We're all human. "Why does Bim deserve to receive messages of this nature? "Well, the answer is simple. He doesn't. Nor do any of our players or staff... the actions of small-minded individuals will never impact that, and we know the Green Army [Argyle's fanbase] will support Bim in any way he needs."
