Probably 2-3 weeks after the last successful test, as that seems to be the sort of notice they've been giving to say if a game is being 'moved' to Wembley. That would make Huddersfield the first game. West Ham is the next home game after that, hopefully that won't be the first as that will be West Ham's Champions league final.

That's if the PL don't throw a wobbly about us just playing 3 games at the new stadium this season. Champions league quarter final (9/10 April and 16/17 April) could be the first as well.

It would be at least four matches because the Palace match will not be played until after the Brighton match, which is two weeks after the (possibly) planned second test event and could therefore still be the first match. And that may be postponed too if they beat Millwall, so five matches is still likely/possible even if Huddersfield is the first match.

I think the PL will be accommodating either way as they don't want to discourage clubs from building or extending stadia. It's just weirdos like that horrible wank-goblin Neil Warnock that have an issue with it.
 
We need Millwall to beat Brighton in the FA cup. That way our game against Brighton will be held at the new ground and then the QF of the CL..
If Brighton go through they'd never make the QF the first game especially midweek.

And the scousers if we play our last three games there and win the league, especially if it's on goal difference from massive wins in those three games.

Think the main complaint from the goblin is that it's a benefit to their relegation rivals if they play us while adjusting to a new stadium. Of course if we won the league Liverpool would turn that into a conspiracy against them.

Assuming Brighton beat Millwall and we then hopefully get drawn away in the first leg of the CL QF, then it's Huddersfield, CL QF, Palace, West Ham, CL SF and Everton. And somehow Brighton, although I've no idea how we fit that one in. If Millwall win then it's a piece of cake. Or cheese.

#thfc The club are planning the two required test events for Saturday 16th March & Saturday 23rd March 2019. The club are targeting Brighton 6th April for the opening of the new stadium but if that’s to be rearranged then Huddersfield on 13th April 2019. Via (@Dan_KP)pic.twitter.com/pcn4kYrgXo


The test dates seem a long way away, but Spurs will need to give fans 2 weeks or more notice so I guess we'll know within the next days or so.

TV picks will also be announced on Friday - not sure whether the TV companies will have a better idea than we do by Friday.

You’ve got me laughing in the doctors with “wank goblin”. Bravo.

Pitch is the same size innit. Given that the whole place will be a cauldron of noise, with an incredible amount coming from one end it say it would potentially be more beneficial to us, not the opposition.

The 16th and 23rd of March gives more than enough time to host a match on the weekend of April 6th (assuming Brighton don't make it to the FA Semis).

Assuming we go through to the quarters of the CL (knock on wood), it would be great for UEFA to do Spurs a solid and have our match be the second week AFTER Huddersfield just in case. And yes, I realize its a random draw, but we got boned with the home/away draw early in the season so let's get this one please.

Or Millwall could just beat Brighton (vomit in own mouth).
