Would guess the Saturday before the season starts.

Boro
Won't (can't) be the weekend before the season starts (27/28), that is Airshow Weekend, they tried to do that last year and were told the 2 events couldn't clash. Hence the Friday night trip to Boro.
Can't be the weekend before that (20/21) as they are in Portugal.
If they do play a home game it will either be before Portugal or just after they get back (Tuesday 23rd for instance)

Must be the only city in the world that can’t host 2 events simultaneously. There would only be about 8,000 at a pre season friendly anyway.

The Airhow 200k per day for 3 days. It is a huge event that involves well planned out logistics. It takes place north of the river and SOL and Sheepfolds are set aside as car parking areas. It has been held on the last weekend in July for over 20 years.
Even if Plod said we could play, why would we want to clash with it?
