If you could settle for two draws from these next two games, would you?

No.
Anyone can beat anyone in the Championship.
It's equally as likely we come away with 6 points than we come away with 0.

Absolutely two draws would be good results but the way to achieve them isn’t to set up the siege of Watford and reading

I’d settle for three, be happy with more. Two? Not really, there’s no reason we can’t beat at least one of the next two, no reasons at all

Be better off points wise with 1 win and 1 defeat and in a strange way that might be easier to achieve than 2 draws.

Depends on how the games go
Go down to ten men early then a point is a good result
If Watford go down to ten men and we don't win it's a missed opportunity.

The only thing I'd take beforehand is 6 points.
We'll be in top 2 by Sunday 😂👍

Usually 2 points would be a pair of good results so long as we take all the points at home. Doesn't look like it's working that way this season though, or at least so I'm hearing.
Feeling it a bit more this week so am expecting 3 or 4.
TBF if the set up and/or the application give us a chance, I'll take the reuslt what ever.

Looking at it now, yes I would... But knowing Stoke, we'll probably be rueing two games of missed opportunities come the weekend!!!

SWansea game notwithstanding when O'Neill sent out a team to lose, the manager has otherwise found a secret formula that has seen us being unbeatable in away games, not great performances, but a very effective style. If he can recall those tactics and have faith in the players that might have stuttered in the most recent games, I see no reason at all why we shouldn't go for six, or at the very least four.

No, both winnable games, as are all games in this division.
If someone offered me two draws, I'd tell them to piss off and take my chances.

No if we are going to challenge for a top six place or better we have to be beating both Watford & Reading. Lets lay down a marker & go for wins in both games we are quite capable as this league has no stand out teams.

I'd be delighted with two draws, am hoping for one win (even if we lose the other) but won't think two defeats is a disaster.

6 easy points.
Both of these are garbage, in particular Reading. They won't be in the play off picture come March/April.
Watford have some obvious talent but a negative manager.

It depends on the team we put out .The old saying that attack is the best way to defend .So team selection will be the answer to this btw 6 points for me

I just don't see that the home / away argument stacks up anymore - both teams could be playing absolutely anywhere with no partizan crowd on either side adding pressure and influencing the game.
As others have said, could be 6 points, could be 0, but I think being 'away' has fuck all to do with it currently.

No, set up the right way and we could get more with the players we've got.

No, win 1 lose 1 is better than drawing both.

No I think we should be expecting better than that even if the last 3 seasons have defied any positive expectations.

No. We can win these. Our away form is good and MON has hopefully learned from his Tinkerman disaster at Swansea.

Watford is a 'lucky' ground. Reading is a dodgy 'bogey' ground. I think 3 points from Watford and lose at Reading. I would take 2 draws though. 6 would be a barnstorming outcome. I just hope we don't make too many changes and play like we did against Brentford for at least 75 minutes - then we stand a chance in both.

We can win both games and lose at home to Sheff Wed that’s how unpredictable this league is. Last years run in proved that. 4 points for me is attainable, 3 would be ok and 2 is acceptable.
