[edit] 30,000?

30,000 is the number given in the campaign box, yet the article says only a few hundred took part? I seriouly doubt that there were 30,000 troops sent by the English. The combined forces of Englan could not number 30,000.Tourskin 02:09, 21 April 2007 (UTC) You are absolutely right, very few medieval English armies were anything like as strong as 30,000. The English force seems to have been gathered from the gentry and aristocracy of N. England and such Scots as were in English allegiance - rather few in 1302-3.
