webfact Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Thai monk predicts Leicester City for the Champions' League Picture: Thairath BANGKOK: -- A Bangkok monk has predicted that Thai owned Leicester City will win European football's number one prize this year - the Champions' League. Monk Thongchai said that Sevilla of Spain will be brushed aside in the next round (the last 16) as Leicester progress all the way to the final and win, reports Thairath. In addition, the abbot of the temple of Wat Traimit predicted that Leicester will avoid relegation from the English Premier League. Leicester sensationally won the title against all the odds last season but have been struggling near the foot of the standings this year. The monk has previously travelled to England to bless the team and some credit his presentation of a special foxes cloth with guiding the team to the premiership win. Leicester have the nickname of "The Foxes". Thongchai was on Nation TV yesterday when he made his predictions. Many would feel that a Champions' League win for Leicester would be a further amazing triumph that would match their unbelievable achievements of 2015-16 in the EPL.

rkidlad Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 BT, Skysports, etc - give this man a job as a pundit. He's clearly wasted as a monk. Also, how much do you have to 'donate' to get this demigod to bless your team? I've given up on hard work and tactics. Who needs science when you can just be lazy?

uptheos Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Of course he studied and took into account the other teams left in? Of course, it's not impossible and if they don't, he will come up with a good one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plachon Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 1 hour ago, Inepto Cracy said: What. A prediction on betting. Is that not a no no? No, apparently not. I once taught a class of monks English. One would regularly tell me his betting predictions on upcoming matches in the English league. He proudly told me had won 20,000 baht once on his bets. Didn't seem to have any sense that this might clash with one of the basic tenets of Buddhism, let alone being a man of the cloth. In fact, whether its selling lottery number predictions or football match outcomes, gambling seems to be a core business pursuit of the modern Thai monk.
