🗣️ Andy Robertson: "I need to start with a confession. Not many things bug me, but if there's one thing that does, it's the idea that my story is a football fairy tale.
I know when people say I'm some sort of Cinderella Man that it's meant as a compliment.
I appreciate that, but to be totally honest, it doesn't feel like one, because it isn't true.
No magic wands have been waved in my direction, I didn't win some kind of lottery to land a spot on one of the biggest clubs in the world. The reason why I'm a Liverpool player is the same reason why I'm captain of my country: I've worked my bollocks off to get where I am, and by doing that, l've been able to make the most of whatever talent I have.
Why does this matter? In truth, it doesn't matter to me as an individual. It probably doesn't matter to my family, either. It only matters because there are God knows how many little Andy Robertsons out there. Kids who are struggling to convince people that their talent deserves an opportunity. Kids who just need a break to get to wherever they deserve to be.
l've never wanted to be a poster boy, but if I'm going to be a poster boy for anything, it should be this — if you don't give up, and if you carry on believing in yourself when others are doubting you, you can make it. You can show that you are good enough."
Naughty, naughty, Welsh Water tell @Channel4News the state of the River Wye has nothing to do with them... and they're "not like the water companies in England".
Well let me remind @DwrCymru that last year alone they spent 14,640 hours dumping sh*t into the Wye and as a company they are in fact the largest sewage dumper in the UK with a grand total of 856,351 hours worth of sewage dump into the environment in 2024.
Hypocrites.

Our beloved magazine, The MagPi, turned 150 today. They grow up so fast 🥲
To celebrate, we chose a few of our favourite projects from issue 150’s special feature compiling 150 Raspberry Pi people and projects previously featured on its hallowed pages. I won’t give too much away, but there’s some seriously cool stuff in there. I’m talking fish bots, smart buoys, beverages and beyond, people.
