If the pass is not straight across or forward then it is not offside..

 

Atleast that's what i always thought...

 

As others have said that is wrong, but the situation almost never arises.

How is it wrong?

 

Say there is 2 strikers and the opposition goalkeeper no defenders are involved.

 

The goalie comes out and the player slides it to the other team mate. If player  B is behind player A and the pass is "backwards" then he is onside right?

If you look at the score, at the top left of your screen, you could be forgiven, for assuming that Swindon Town were playing Turin, in the UEFA cup or summit!

Yes but if B is in front of A (would have to be a shit pass) and the ball goes backwards, B goes back and gets it, then it's offside. Hence it being a hypothetical situation that's very unlikely to happen.

Yes but if B is in front of A (would have to be a s*** pass) and the ball goes backwards, B goes back and gets it, then it's offside. Hence it being a hypothetical situation that's very unlikely to happen.

 

Okay fair enough.
