Robbie Williams has reunited with his former band mate Gary Barlow.

The former Take That band mates were spotted chatting at the Emirates Stadium in North London, ahead of the match between Arsenal and Manchester United.

Williams, who left the group to launch a solo career in 1995, put his arm around Barlow during an interview for Sky Sports and joked: "Weve not spoken a word to each other yet - we dont know how this is going to go."

"It could go either way this yet, mate," Gary added.

Last month Gary and his fellow band members Howard Donald, Jason Orange and Mark Owen confirmed plans for a British tour with album The Circus next summer.

According to a tour spokeswoman, Williams will not be making any appearances with the group.
