General query[edit]

"Some chroniclers spoke about 500 Welsh, driven archers, asking to go, and massacred despite everything until the last by Norman peasants." Does this mean anything to anyone? Jed keenan 21:18, 10 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed the text from the article until further notice, as it is detrimental to the quality of the article. Feel free to decipher this and reinsert it later. The sentence is as follows:

"Some chroniclers spoke about 500 Welsh, driven archers, asking to go, and massacred despite everything until the last by Norman peasants, reminding the massacre of French prisoners slaughtered at Agincourt." --Patar knight - ^chat/_{contributions} 13:33, 17 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
