I found this page listed below quite interesting.  but  when it came to 
offest phasing. I'm lost a little. 

Because, of this statement

On the picture above, the centre conductor of the Coaxial-cable is 
connected to the left part of the Horizontal dipole (as shown the "+"). 
Thus, the polarity is RHCP (CW).

What happens if you are using a matching system where the dipole is not 
split?  like the awesome matching system used in M squared antennas?

The center conductor is actually going to both sides of the driven element/

Now what?
