[edit] Proposed merge

See Talk:Yellow card#Proposed Merge With Red card

  • This merge was in fact performed. --rhaas 12:28, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

Move to 'Misconduct (football (soccer))' like all association football articles. Skinnyweed 16:48, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

That's simply not true, see Football_(soccer)#See_also. – Smyth\talk 16:44, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
When a parenthetical disambig is used, the format TOPIC (football) is usually used; when it is inline then the soccer may be used, e.g. Football (soccer) TOPIC. This seems to work well; no need to make it more complex especially when disambiguation is not really required. --Daveb 09:26, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Team gets 5 yellow cards in one game

Don't some competitions fine teams that incur more than four yellow cards in one game? Xiner (talk, email) 04:57, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

This is an issue for each league's by-laws, as are all post-game sanctions. --124.189.6.85 06:45, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Cards

Why does it stands cautioned in the text when a player gets an yellow card? In every football computergame, the commentants says that this player gets an yellow card. Now he's booked insted of the player is cautioned? Doesn't it named "booking" or "booked" when a player gets an yellow card?

Caution is the correct term as used in the Laws of the Game. "Booking" is a slang term only. --124.189.6.85 06:46, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
As is Dismissal (from the field of play) for the slang "Sending off". So why did you change it back to the slang in the article? Don't say 'popular usage', because otherwise the article could have "Booking" and not caution as popular usage.

[edit] Sent off

Sent off gets redirected here.. the title of the article says football, but it's only about soccer. Sending off is also used in the rugby codes, linking to here is meaningless for those uses. Fixed.
