Barnet FC stadium manager Del Baker has invited all temporary staff connected with the club to a training day with a difference at Underhill on Saturday ... a seat to watch the FA Cup Final between Cardiff City and Portsmouth in the Pavilion is an added bonus.

Fire training and first aid are on the agenda, plus a briefing on the Bee Have or Bee Out scheme, a presentation by Barnet College and a chance to sign up to get NVQ and, in general, a look forward to next season. Dress code and customer focus, plus the Fun Day in July, will be discussed.

Paul Fairclough has already organised the first of many close season games to assess trialists and talent for the big kick off. Del Baker is getting his off field "troops" trained and prepared - safety and customer focus being the keys.

A buffet and refreshments will be provided before the Cup Final kick off.
