Captain Holt 580 Posted June 9, 2009 The Canaries will be seeded in the South Section of the Carling Cup First Round draw, which takes place at 9.30am next Tuesday, 16th June.Newcastle United and Middlesbrough receive a bye to the second round as the highest-placed clubs in last season''s tables, but the remaining 70 are split for the first round into northern (34) and southern (36) section.Potential Carling Cup First Round opponents:AFC BournemouthAldershotBarnetBrentfordBrighton and Hove AlbionBurton AlbionCheltenham TownDagenham and RedbridgeExeter CityGillinghamHereford UnitedLeyton OrientNorthampton TownShrewsbury TownSwindon TownTorquay UnitedWycombe WanderersYeovil Town Do the top two teams in the league standings always get a bye because this is the first time I can remember it happening?It was only in 2003 we were playing Dagenham and Redbridge in the FA Cup and they were a little non-league side against a big(ish) side in one of the most publisised tie''s of the round, and it could well be a league fixture soon!

Blofield Canary 12 Posted June 9, 2009 Bournmouth away would get my vote. Not far to travel and a bloody good away couple of days early in the season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
