"Apparently it's for just a year at first. They'll go on tour and they are think about recording a new album.
"It's no great surprise to Take That fans. Gary Barlow and Robbie have been talking a lot about becoming friends again.

Robbie once had a very successful solo career and happily spewed venom about his former group Take That, especially Gary. Then Robbie's career went down the toilet, while the That reformed and became mega-sellers again, while Robbie slipped further and further off the radar.
Then Robbie rejoined Take That. The end

I think Gary is having the last laugh, like I always knew he would 0 -

I hope they just let him back in the band so that they can fire his "fat dancer" ass again..
Amen to that brother,I just cannot stand this chancer,can't stand his stupid smug face.
Just do the right thing,realise that people are no longer interested in you and the sh*te "music" you make,just go away and spend the money you've somehow managed to make,leave us alone,and while you're at it,take the other four with you0 -

A face i would never tire of punching.
Ah here Degsy,how can you say that about Robbie Williams.
Oh hang on,I thought you meant the Robbie Williams who isn't a smug,arrogant,talentless chancer who bragged about the size of the record deal he signed a few years ago.......
This fella,yeah,I could punch all day,only to stop for toilet breaks ..:D0 -

The only reason that gobdaw was successful was he had a great songwriting partner in Guy Chambers and then shat on the guggies by trying to lock him into an exclusive deal. Bet Chambers is glad he told him where to get off now.
Will he fill Slane again? noooooo.
Will he fill Knebworth again? noooooo.
Only if he slithers back to Take That - the band he vilified for feckin years.
I'm only sorry Gary Barlow is such a soft touch.
Well not really, although have to say during the late 90's he was very dignified despite all that happened,(how he remained so dignified I'll never know) also you have to remember that before Take That reformed Gary was doing very nicely having secured a writing contract with Sony and writing and working for other artists after moving to the States where he didn't have all the negative press.
Obviously since the hugely successful reform with Take That, Gary has gone from strength to strength in the music industry with Take That really being just a side project,(this is Take Thats last contracted album) he is a hugely sought after songwriter, has been given his own record label (Future Records) has successfully launched the classical singer Camilla Kerslake.
Williams who is releasing his greatest hits album later this year, it will be a big seller especially with him getting back with Take That, and who has written a couple of tracks on his album, yes thats right Gary Barlow
one track which will be released as a single, more royalties for Gary 0 -

And dont forget Ray Heffernan..
It was Angels that pretty much saved his solo career. If Robbie was a decent bloke he would have fired Ray a few quid when the song became such a huge success or at least brought him on tour as his guitarist (as a token gesture). ..
absolute pr1ck. Can believe Barlow let him back in to the band after all the derogatory remarks he made about them when he left.0 -
Personally I don't like Robbie one bit, but from a showbiz level, the five of them together performing-its just going to be amazing! They are magical! Without doubt, I'm getting a ticket for Croke Park *fingers crossed!*
Yea..I find it hard to believe that all is forgiven just like that. Robbie was beyond horrible to Gary, and you have to admire Gary for not saying one bad word about Rob to the press. He kept his mouth shut. Gary is a top class guy.
But to forgive him and let him back into the band, it must be more about ambition (making the band even bigger!) and giving it back to the fans, as I can't imagine Gary would want Robbie back for any other reason.
Read somewhere today also that Take That are going to try and break America. Not a good idea in my eyes....they would be risking a lot to try and make it big when they have all the fans they need in Uk and Ireland.
But I doubt its about money, they seem like they have enough, probably motivated by egos and ambition..
And egos... They are the biggest boyband ever and they obviously know it, so can you imagine them five egos in a room discussing whatever they need to decide..like who gets lead on that song? etc.
I really hope it works as Im a huge Take That fan and would be gutted if they broke up again, after egos come crashing.
But I have hope, because these guys (well Gary Barlow anyway..!
) are extreemly clever and they know how the industry works so maybe there is a possibility that this will work perfectly and be beyond brillianTT! 0 -

Please don't refer to them as a boyband, the fact that they have multiple Ivor Novello winner Gary Barlow saves them from that title imo 0 -

I totally agree about Gary. He is such an amazing songwriter and he is just a pure genius. I admire Take That for their music more than anything else but you can't blame the poor fans who like who like the look of them!! :P
Oh I do, now Mrs Barlow on the other hand,now thats a different story as a male fan I will be hoping they bring her on tour as one of the dancers again 0 -

It appears that Robbie Williams really is set to quit Take That once again after he confirms plans for a solo tour.
He let slip news of his departure on his official website following a question from a fan asking what he wanted to say to critics of his solo performances during the Take That live shows.
"I must say I am aware that there is a perception in certain quarters and I'm enjoying throwing that perception down people's throats when I jump through the wall in L.M.E.Y (Let Me Entertain You)...I've never felt more on my game ..and it's thanks in part to the nay sayers....they have put a fire in my belly and in turn a smile on my face," (sic) he wrote on his blog.

"I'm blessed to have them... and when the tickets go on sale for my next tour I think we'll see what 'dwindling' looks like" (sic).
The group has recently been reunited with Williams after he famously fell out with band mate Gary Barlow at the peak of their fame almost 15 years ago.
The news that Take That were back with their original line-up sparked unprecedented demand for tickets to their huge UK tour and their latest album as a five-piece, ‘Progress', was the biggest-selling album of last year in the UK.
However, the 37 year-old singer has been getting a lot of stick for his 40 minute solo sections during the live shows.
One fan, gercia82, wrote on YouTube that Gary Barlow, Mark Owen, Jason Orange and Howard Donald were "better" without the singer while another user wrote: "OMG.. Robbie's performance was terrifying"0 -

Don't always believe the press.
Just because Robbie is making a new solo album and planning a tour DOES NOT confirm he is leaving Take That.
He could always do what Ronan Keating is doing with Boyzone by dividing his time between that and his solo career.
I'm just wondering if all the touring, both with Take That on his own will be too much for Robbie or not.
Perhaps if he only tours during the summer because Rob doesn't like playing gigs away from home (England) for longer than half a year. It almot caused him a mental breakdown on the Up Close And Personal Tour.0
