FERRIE Bodde returns to action for Swansea City's reserves at West Brom today as he continues his recovery from more than three years of knee injury problems.

Bodde kicked off his latest comeback attempt at Hereford a fortnight ago but then sat out last weekend's practice match with Neath.

The Dutch midfield ace will play in this afternoon's behind-closed-doors game alongside Alan Tate, another who is on the way back after a long-term injury.

A number of other senior men will be involved, including Stephen Dobbie, while new boys Rory Donnelly and Darnel Situ will also feature.

Swansea Reserves: from Moreira, Alfei, Situ, Tate, Bodde, March, Dobbie, Bessone, Smith, Edwards, Donnelly, Thomas, Davies, Walsh, Elsey, Loveridge.
