Ex-Bull James McQuilkin is 'fighting for his life' after signing for Torquay. Boss Chris Hargreaves told the BBC the midfielder is not being paid by the Gulls, but is trying to keep his footballing career going: "He's a good footballer, got a great attitude, played before at a good level and is fighting for his life, which is why he's at Torquay. We are able to say to him 'we can't pay you, but what we can do is get you on the football pitch'."
