One thing that hasn't been discussed is whether or not Corr is behind the ball when Hurst crosses it. I can't get the highlights here at work, so I can't say. Can someone have a look? If he's behind the ball he can't be off side.
I'm also assuming Hursts cross went forward. If that went sideways then he can't be off side either...again I can't get the highlights to check, but I'm pretty sure the ball went forwards.
The direction the ball travels is not relevant to whether a player is offside; only the player's position relative to the ball.
