Umfraville and 4000 Scots?
editUnlikely in the extreme, this must have originally come from a dubious source. Umfraville, the supposed leader of the Scots, was a Border knight from the English side, and in no way could have mustered 4000 men, probably not even 40 men. And Scots?, well it was the early days of the reivers, but Robin Mend the Market was hated on the Scottish side. Maybe a bust up between Neville, and Umfraville, but not significant other than internecine English feuding. Brendandh (talk) 18:59, 25 August 2013 (UTC) 18:58, 25 August 2013 (UTC)
