Chesunt play in the Southern League Premier Division. Cheshunt last season finished 19th in the Ryman Premiership and were not relegated. They switched into the Southern League along with many Ryman League teams have such as the Bees last seasons pre season opponents Borehamwood who play in the Southern League east. The Bees won the match 5-1.This will be the Bees first pre-season of the season and is expected to be used as a reserve game For fring players,Youngsters and trialists. The Bees have 7 players on Trial that are expected to play they are................ Zema Abbey (Norwich)

Bees only summer signing goalkeeper Ross Flitney may also start. But there is a good chance he wont as on 12th the Bees will be taking on Billericay Town where the Bees are expected to field a strong side. The Bees
Played Cheshunt in an Herts Senior Cup Quarter Final in the 2003/2004 season. In fact every time the Bees
Have played Cheshunt it has been in the Herts Senior Cup. In 2003/2004 where the Bees won 4-1 in the first round in 1997. Ken Charlery scoring twice that day and in the year where it was the Queens silver jubilee and the last time a Brit won Wimbledon in 1977 where the Bees beat Cheshunt at home 2-0 the legendary Jimmy Greaves was on the score sheet that day in front of 667 people at Underhill. The biggest crowd ever to turn up for a Barnet v Cheshunt match. Chesunts other friendlies also include games against a Spurs XI, Potters Bar and Ware Town. And on Tuesday 19th July they face Enfield Town.
Prediction:
With the Bees fielding a reserve team I think it will be tough for the Bees to win but I think they just will!
Cheshunt 1-2 Barnet
