Leicester City have climbed to the top of the table. No, not the kind of table that we're used to talking about here at Trent Furniture, this time it’s the Premier League table. Leicester City have won the title!
Our furniture store is based in Leicester and it’s fair to say that at least half of our staff are long-term Leicester City supporters. As the season has progressed the number of supporters has grown dramatically. It’s extraordinary to see your local club pick up one of the biggest football trophies in the world and Trent Furniture pass on our congratulations on to everybody associated with the football club.
In what has been a successful year for Trent Furniture too, we’ve decided to match items from our furniture range with key members of the Leicester City team by our way of homage to the team and their amazing achievement this season.
Wes Morgan
Solid performances this season from the captain fantastic have given Leicester a sturdy platform from the back to build on. Known for his no-nonsense defending, he gets the job done consistently without stealing the limelight.
Our Tall Captains bar stool not only resembles our captain in name, but also in its characteristics. Strong, sturdy and durable, this stool can be part of team of four to provide a solid defence propped up against your bar. Capable of performing under the biggest of pressures, the stools survive the wear and tear that comes with customers’ – or in Morgan’s case the opposition’s – knocks and pulls.
Riyad Mahrez
Picked up on a low price by Leicester, Mahrez was brought for just £450,000 by Leicester in 2014. He has been a star buy for the team and has provided great value – even picking up the 2016 PFA player of the year.
Our Ascot staking chairs are a hugely popular stock item and at a low price offer just as good an investment. The chairs can be used at conferences, presentations, weddings, parties and seminars - offering the same versatility in positioning as the Algerian.
Jamie Vardy
Vardy is Leicester’s top goal scorer this season and he is capable of providing show-stopping performances. He can lead the line on his own and is known for his speed and high-energy levels.
The Chesterfield sofa is an ideal retreat after a tiring shift on the pitch and fits in perfectly in a pub (the best place for a Vardy party). With upholstered arms and unique detail, this sofa has a luxurious finish which is good enough to match that of striker’s goal-scoring finishing.
Available as a two or three seater there’s also plenty of room for the other strikers Okazaki and Ulloa.
Claudio Ranieri
It isn’t possible to describe Ranieri in just one piece of furniture. The manager knows how to make the most out of a team on a budget, he has evolved this team into one which is now elite. And the same can be said for organising an event - you can still create a champion event without all the money.
Our budget range means you don’t have to put up with inferior furniture. Despite the price, the products are high quality and can provide great results.
Over the years we have been commercial furniture suppliers for a number of football teams including Manchester United, West Ham United and Portsmouth. But we’re currently waiting for a call from the Leicester City Chairman asking to use our furniture that is fit for champions.
The good news is that many of our contract chairs are available in blue and white so meaning they will fit in a treat at the Leicester City conference facilities or even the boss’s office. It’s certainly one summer buying decision that they won’t regret.
