I'm really hijacking this thread and I'm sorry for it (I wont do it again I swear)

I'm aware of the whole French infantry issue (I said that they didn't touch the Flemish lines before the cav).

What the charge of the cavalry is concerned . I think the Brugse metten (where people from Bruges killed the French garrison in their sleep) had something to do with it. The French knight probably felt wronged by these peasants. This is however just a hypothesis
