Chesham United vs Barnet friendly tonight?
For several weeks, Chesham United have been including a pre-season friendly at home vs Barnet in their schedule of PSF matches, to be played on 23rd July (i.e. tonight). However, I have never seen any mention of this fixture on the Barnet website. Can anybody at Barnet confirm that this game is actually taking place? If so, presumably Barnet will be sending their under-18s third XI, given the other pre-season fixtures scheduled for this week (including, of course, the one against Arsenal XI tomorrow).

Same as game at WGC, club didn't acknowledge or mention it but turned up and played the game!as Chesham are advertising game on twitter it must have been confirmed!
Re: Chesham United vs Barnet friendly tonight?
If anyone has any info on the calibre of team that Barnet are sending to Chesham this evening, could they please post it here. The last time there was a Chesham vs Barnet PSF (in July 2011), Barnet sent a lamentably poor batch of (presumably) triallists which got thrashed 4-0. [John: Assuming that something similar is going to be the case this evening, I shall be going to watch Beaconsfield Town vs Oxford City instead].

It will be a U18 side with maybe a couple of first team fringe players and trialists.bucks bee wrote:If anyone has any info on the calibre of team that Barnet are sending to Chesham this evening, could they please post it here.

I would suggest the academy boys will be a lot stronger than that motley crew Sanchez sent in 2011. We have around 30 pros so I would have thought several of the younger ones will play tonight as we will only want 17 or 18 players for the game tomorrow.bucks bee wrote:If anyone has any info on the calibre of team that Barnet are sending to Chesham this evening, could they please post it here.

Re: Chesham United vs Barnet friendly tonight?
Which we didn't do against Bedfont ? A couple of years ago. As a fixture secretary it's a dangerous game not confirming fixtures...obviously at WGC they had but not to publicise is a bit odd...jerroll wrote:Same as game at WGC, club didn't acknowledge or mention it but turned up and played the game!as Chesham are advertising game on twitter it must have been confirmed!

I would hope that trick won't be repeated again for sure.pgbee wrote:Which we didn't do against Bedfont ? A couple of years ago.

He’s the absolute last player we need! Poor attitude. Getting on for 40. And we need a RB and striker. Bizarre!!jerroll wrote:Indeed!beesknees99 wrote:JCR??? Seriously???jerroll wrote:JCR, Bettamar and Box in xi!trialist striker still here too.

Re: Chesham United vs Barnet friendly tonight?
There is no guile in the squad. No game changers on the bench. Just a lot of boring players who go sideways and backwards. So any addition to the squad will be a positive.

Erm - have you seen JCR before? The guy is ditherer in chief.john dockers shorts wrote:Just a lot of boring players who go sideways and backwards.

There are very many footballers who don't play for us whom we could sign who would add nothing to the squad other than to increase the wage bill.john dockers shorts wrote:There is no guile in the squad.

Re: Chesham United vs Barnet friendly tonight?
Anyway, is anybody at the match reading this and so able to give us an update?
