What's wrong with ride on mower battery

Hello all, What's wrong with the battery for the Rover Rancher 27189 ride on mower i'm restoring? The problem is when i got the mower i found that the 12 volt lead acid battery was flat and i thought all it needed was a overnight trickle charge but when i connected my microprocessor controlled charger and left it over night neither the 50% nor the 75% lights were lit up (yes i checked the charger and it's working and the battery cells had sufficient water).So what is wrong with my battery and will i need to purchase a new battery? p.s the battery is a Exide Endurance.

    I don't suppose you have a multimeter? Or alternatively, does your charger state what voltage it's currently at? Also, when you say trickle charge, does it say (or can you find out) what rate it actually charges at? If it's a really low charge rate, or if it's a really large battery (~50Ah), then chances are you just need to charge it even longer. Can you perhaps provide a picture of it? (Preferably showing the labels, and/or next to something for a size reference?)
