Take That have told their ex-bandmate Robbie Williams to forget any thoughts about rejoining the band.

Despite often saying they were open to the much-rumoured possibility of Robbie joining them once more following their successful reformation, now both Gary Barlow and Mark Owen state Williams has missed his chance of ever singing with them again.

Gary explains to The Sun, "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.”

Whilst Mark adds in a Big Issue interview, "We asked him when we reformed but he had commitments - he had to walk his dog that day.”

That's told him!
