Soccer Deck
Slang for the Cards the Soccer Referee carries; e.g., “He’s pulling out the deck a lot today”. (See “Soccer Cards” and “Soccer Booking“).
Soccer Caution
An official soccer disciplinary action where the Referee shows a player a Yellow Soccer Card. (See “Cards“).
Soccer Cards
There are 2 colors of soccer cards which the referee will hold up to indicate serious soccer fouls or behavior which won’t be tolerated. He carries these cards in his shirt pocket, so if he reaches for his pocket it’s a bad sign for the player who committed the soccer foul. These cards are about the size of a playing card and one is yellow and the other is red. When a card is to be given (it isn’t actually given to the offending player, it is actually just shown to him and to everyone else) the referee will stop the socce game, call the player over, hold up the card and write the player’s name in his notebook. This is called booking the player and when it happens the player has been “booked”, (e.g., “she was booked”). Any time a Yellow or Red Card is shown, a “direct” or “indirect kick” will also be awarded. (See “Fouls“, “Deck” & “Booking“).
Soccer Booking
When a yellow or red soccer card is given the soccer Referee takes out his “notebook” (actually a soccer record card) & writes down the player’s name & number. When he does this he “books” a player & the socccer player has been “booked”. (See Cards).
