Let's be honest, most of the City v Argyle 'hatred' is generated by them. They are officially obsessed with us. Jealousy probably the key driver. Small part of a rugby town.
As someone said earlier the whole place has a chip on it's shoulder and tends to look down it's rather smug and condescending nose at Plymouth, not just the football either, there's a ingrain attitude about the place.
When talking about the respective clubs to people from outside the region, I use the Glasgow / Edinburgh analogy. One is a large working class shipyard town, tough people, with a well supported (comparatively successful) club, the other is a middle class slightly more arty, up it's own backside place that really thinks it's better than it is but in football terms rarely threatens anyone.
We rarely mention them - outside of threads like this - they sing about us every week. That's the difference.
Torquay are ......Torquay.
