Key PlayerTresor Kandol. Tricky striker who has scored goals with Darlington and Dagenham and Redbridge. Signed for £50,000 for the Bees in January. Has had personal problems and has spent time in jail over the summer for a series of driving offences. However, if he can concentrate on his football, he could provide the goals and spark that Barnet desperately need.
StrengthsFairclough likes to play an attractive brand of football on the ground. They never really clicked last season, but if they can reach the heights they did in their Conference winning season, they could surprise a few people. The presence of midfielder Andy Hessenthaler is an astute piece of business and could help spur the Bees on.
WeaknessesGoals. The Bees simply did not score enough goals last season. Their top scorers were Nick Bailey and Giuliano Grazioli with just 7 each. Also, they need to start matching some of the more physical sides in the division. Too many times last season they were out-muscled.
Prediction21st. Another stuggle on the cards for the Underhill side.

Next Team: Boston
