The draw for the Carling Cup First Round, which is regionalised, was made this morning and given The Bluebirds a home time and first ever fixture against League Two side Dagenham & Redbridge.
Subject to tv wanting the game (as if!), the clash will be at the new Cardiff City Stadium on Tuesday 11th August, kick off 7.45pm and unless City get a home league game to start the Championship when the fixture list is revealed tomorrow, this will be the first competitive fixture at the new ground.
The Essex opponents are about to start their third season in league football and have adjusted well. Despite crowds of 1,500 most home games, they finished 8th last term missing the play-offs only due to a last day home defeat.
Unless there are any changes to the schedule, we will the match at Cardiff City Stadium on Tuesday 11th August, kick off 7.45pm.
