For Professor Peter Saccio, the battle was indeed a unique clash in the annals of English history, because "the victory was determined, not by those who fought, but by those who delayed fighting until they were sure of being on the winning side."
For Professor Peter Saccio var slaget vitterligt et unikt slag i den engelske histories annaler, for "sejren blev ikke bestemt af dem der kæmpede, men af dem der ventede med at kæmpe indtil de var sikre på at være på den sejrende side".
