I have it on good authority that we were very close to getting Trooper on the Robbies kit for the 2016-17 season. It appears that Maiden "did not want to be associated with a single football team" even though Robbies worked hard to try and persuade them. Very annoying that there was then an announcement that they had teamed up with West Ham. Steve Harris is has their crest on his guitar and wears a scarf on his wrist during gigs, so I guess it should not be a surprise.
