Other Facts of Note
Joslin has never refereed a Premier League match, despite the number of years he has been at the higher levels of refereeing, and is due to retire at the end of the 2007–08 season. He has, however, operated as fourth official in the Premiership, such as during the Birmingham versus Liverpool match at St. Andrews on 12 February 2005, for Howard Webb, and the Liverpool versus Middlesbrough encounter at Anfield on 18 April 2007, for Graham Poll.
Through affiliation, he was the County Referees Officer for the Derbyshire County Football Association (rather than Nottinghamshire) until 2008, when he became Referee Development Officer for the Lincolnshire Football Association. He holds a Level 3 FA Referees Coaching qualification, and was a tutorial participant in the FA Young Referees' Conference at Staverton Park, Daventry, Northants, on 31 May 2007.
Phil has now taken up position as one of the new Referee Development Officers at Lincolnshire FA.

Famous quotes containing the words facts and/or note:
“Coincidence is a pimp and a cardsharper in ordinary fiction but a marvelous artist in the patterns of facts recollected by a non-ordinary memorist.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
“In his very rejection of art Walt Whitman is an artist. He tried to produce a certain effect by certain means and he succeeded.... He stands apart, and the chief value of his work is in its prophecy, not in its performance. He has begun a prelude to larger themes. He is the herald to a new era. As a man he is the precursor of a fresh type. He is a factor in the heroic and spiritual evolution of the human being. If Poetry has passed him by, Philosophy will take note of him.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
