Magpies 'not right' for Hill The 31-year-old spent last weekend mulling over the move having made only two full appearances for the Gulls this season. However, he is eight appearances away from breaking United's all-time appearance record and wants fight for his first-team place. Town assistant-manager Paul Compton said: "Kevin chose to stay with Torquay and we have to respect that. That is the increasing problem we are having - players are looking at our position and the distance they have to travel." Hill said: "I would love to be playing every game but the move did not feel right. I really enjoy the training at Torquay, keep myself very fit and I want to be part of this season." Torquay manager Paul Buckle said: "I wanted to give him the chance to go out on loan but I had mixed feelings about it - I really did not want him to go." Compton was hoping to hear back from a striker, having missed out on signing Bath City's former Weymouth forward Scott Partridge on loan. "I hope I will know something today," said Compton yesterday. Town fielded one trialist, forward Denilson, and several under-18 players in Tuesday's 2-0 friendly reverse at Portland United. Meanwhile, stand-in skipper Mark Jermyn believes the team need to rediscover the mentality of Mark Morris' Magpies. "We did not have the best team in the world but one that wanted to win for each other," said Jermyn. "We used to nick a lot of games in the last five minutes through pure willingness to go that extra mile. I want to see Dorchester get back to that."
