Dear Bryan

Dear Bryan,

I know this is a serious and sad time for you.
Like hey man, I know I'm not right next to you, but I really want to give you a nice big hug.
Trust me man, there will always be another time. England isn't such a bad football team.
You see Bryan, me and you have something in common. We're both English.
My sister just had a baby, and she lives in England. So I have an English nephew.

So all I'm trying to say is, I was rooting for England too, and it was sad to see them leave.

So if you have any emotional distress, call me up and we'll talk this out.

Much love and crumpets,
Mike.
