Donovan makes return for reserves tonight

Last updated : 20 November 2002 By Mad Tyke

The ex-Grimsby star should start his first game in eight months when the reserves

take on Huddersfield Town at Oakwell tonight.

The 30-year-old tore his patella tendon in March and has not played for the Tykes since.

Gary Jones (hamstring) and Carl Barrowclough (back) are also fit while Kevin Dixon has returned after a spell with Doncaster Rovers and is on the substitutes bench.
