Barclaycard to First Direct Balance Transfer.

in Credit cards
Hi all,
Just a quick one and some possible advice? I am looking to transfer a balance from Barclaycard to the First Direct Gold card.
Not sure if I am over thinking it but if I transfer the balance and then regularly spend on the FD card when I make payments will that clear the 0% free amount first?
Would this result in interest adding up on any spend after/behind the 0% transfer after the initial transfer amount had been paid over the months?
Many thanks in advance

i may be wrong but i'm sure the amount you pay goes off the bt first so interest will be added to what you've spent.
