In 1069, Sweyn II supported Edgar Ætheling in his claim for the English throne. A Danish army captured York, but the Normans bribed the Danish to abandon Edgar.
WI Sweyn, for whatever reason, refuses the bribe and the Danish army defeats the Normans in a battle around York in the same year?
How will England be affected? Could there possibly be an independent Northumbria? Or will Edgar be determined to take the whole cake?
Is it possible for the Normans to be pushed out of England at this point?
