  1. There's nothing in the rules about the ball going backwards. The goalscorer just has to be behind the ball which almost always means that it going backwards is onside.

     

    Almost?

     

    Yes, as in it's a rarity to see a pass backwards for player who is offside. Simply because of the way the game flows. But when it happens it is correct.

  2. So if you skin the keeper and then square it to a team mate you will be offside unless there are two defenders behind the ball ? Thats stupid.

     

    What?

     

    If the teammate is ahead of the ball when played, yeah.

    I guess technically if you square it to a teammate, then no, but if you play it forward to a teammate, then yes. 

     

    Doesn't matter what "way" you play it. What matters is the recipient's position when played. You could pass it backwards and the guy could be offside.
