Ex Manager Has Had Enough Of Robbie Williams’ Insults

A music industry source tells the Mirror Nigel Martin Smith kept “meticulous records” of his accounts when he was guiding the success of Take That, who recently re-formed without Robbie Williams. Now that Robbie has attacked Nigel on his new track ‘The 90s’, he’s fighting back. “Nigel always had a feeling Robbie could be problematic and he kept every detail of how much each was paid and when,” the source explained. “The label knew this and did the sensible thing in insisting that any defamatory lyrics were immediately removed from the ‘Rudebox’ album. Otherwise Nigel was going to seek an injunction to stop its release. He’s put up with Robbie slagging him off for years and he’s had enough.”
