Take That: 'There's No Place For Robbie Now'

They're happy without him...

Take That: 'There's No Place For Robbie Now' Add to My Fav Bands List
Share

Take That has ruled out the possibility of a full reunion with Robbie Williams, saying there is now “no place” for him in the pop supergroup.

The group, who reformed in November 2005, originally wanted Robbie to come back, but now they feel that their bond is so strong as a foursome they don’t need him.

Speaking about their initial decision to reform, Mark Owen said:  "We asked him (Robbie), but he had other commitments - he had to walk his dog that day."

Gary Barlow continued to the Big Issue: "I think, when it comes down to it, he's just not going to be in the band again. I just don't think there's a place for him now here."

In a reverse of fortunes, Robbie’s last album ‘Rudebox’ achieved meagre sales figures compared to his earlier material, while Take That have scored a number one album and single and sold out huge nationwide jaunts.

  • The question is why is there even speculation that Robbie Williams may rejoin Take That? Seriously why would he want to? Perhaps all this talk is just publicity on behalf of Take That? The more they associate their name with that of Robbie Williams the more publicity they get.

  • I bet Robbie will lose a lot of sleep over this...NOT! TT look like a Vegas act. People are acting like they’re the return of the Beatles or something. People (most recently Nigel Martin-Smith) keep saying Robbie needs to let them enjoy their new success, but he’s not the one belaboring the point--TT and Robbie’s critics are. And he’s taken the last year off to play football, enjoy his girlfriend, etc. He is hardly blocking TT’s limelight. They are all successful.
