Looks like this album will be TT as a 4 judging by Rob's comments today:

 

Robbie Williams: "I would love to do something with Take That again but now i'm having a blast being me and I'm going to be me for a while"

That does not disappoint nor surprise me. Take That are fine as 4, the albums from them as 4 were stronger than Progress/Progressed. I also believe Robbie in or out wont impact the success of the album as Beautiful World and the Circus were just as successful as Progress/Progressed.

Europe wise it could effect them, but I agree, I prefer them as a 4
Europe they havnt really aimed for since their return, they have really focused on the UK and it has paid off. They will still manage minor success in Europe, with or without Robbie. Robbie been involved or not will not hinder their success in the UK and Ireland.

Germany is the main territory for them after uk and Ireland and rightly so. They sold half a million copies of progress in Germany and about the same for BW. Circus didn't do so well out there.

With good promotion an album with or without Robbie could still do well in Germany.

i think platinum = 200,000 is always in reach for Take That in Germany. <3

I wonder what will challenge TT when they release in November?

I can't see 1D outselling them at all...Is Adele releasing this year? Does she usually wait till Xmas or will she release Autumn or January time...

The battle and competition will only drive sales, i can still see no one beating Take That apart from Adele.

Howard has confirmed the album will be released in November, with the single likely to hit radios in September!

 

He also left quite a strange tweet:

 

@HowardDonald: You all need to get up to date and download off iTunes if TT are to stand any chance of charting in November

 

Wonder what that means? Physicals albums always outsell their digital counterparts for artists like TT

Maybe it is directed towards placings for their singles, when we were young charted poorly and outside The Flood subsequent singles from the progress era charted in lower positions than they have become accustomed too.

Good point Pippa! I was worrying that they might be alienating their whole Xmas audience by not releasing a physical

They would simply be crazy to not release a physical, unless some surprise is headed our way as an extra to the physical album, the download version may have extras to target those who purely do not purchase physicals.
Im so looking forward to hearing the new material,i hope the lead single can at least make top 5,the album will be huge,that im certain of,id just like some hit singles too.

Word is the album will be released on 24 November, going head to head with 1D who release the same day

 

The Sun is reporting that Adele is releasing on the 24th as well

If thats true, all will benefit as fans of each will be certain to purchase, i am not sure if its totally right to release all 3 on the same day and if this happens i would predict the following result,

 

Number 1 Adele

Number 2 Take That

Number 3 One Direction

 

Take That always have extra fantastic opening sales but with the colossal success of 21 by Adele i would predict her opening sales in a 4th quarter to be larger than Take That.

I would hope that TT avoid Adele, not worried about 1D as they will easily outsell them.

I too would hope Adele and Take That dont have the same release date, i would include One Direction in that too, while i know Take That would beat One Direction i would be happy for all them to achieve at least 1 week at number 1 with big sales.
