Hill nearing Dorchester return

Dorchester Town captain Kevin Hill is closing in on a return to full fitness having been out of regular action since August.

The Magpies skipper has only played in two matches since picking up the injury against Newport County.

Caretaker-manager Ashley Vickers told the Dorset Echo: "Kev trained fully on Saturday. He did all the running and also got through the game we had. He's itching to get back and has been very frustrated. We've missed his calmness and assurance.

"I reckon he'll be back available to play within the next two to three weeks. We both know he needs game time though.

"We don't have a reserve side to help ease him back so we need to give him as much game-related training as possible.

"He'll be a great asset when he's back because he's a quality player."
