So is it "sock-urh" or "soe'sh-ur"? The latter being like "social" but with an -er ending. Because that's how 'association' is pronounced.

Where is "association" pronounced like that, if I may ask? I could only find the pronunciation I'm familiar with, which is this: https://dictionary.cambridge.org/pronunciation/english/association

To maybe be more clear: you are implying that the c in "soc" is pronounced like a "sh" when it's the t in "tion".

(Edit: missed some letters.)

Yeah, that's how I pronounce 'association' as well.

I see now that I said it wrong. The 'c' in 'association' is pronounced like an 's', so is it 'so-ser'? Like saying "so-so" but with an -er at the end?

So, if I may ask, how do you pronounce soccer?
