In addition, he has previously held the position of assistant referee for both the Premier League and FIFA, and also fulfilled that role in the 1998 FA Cup Final at Wembley. ==Career== Joslin first took up the whistle in 1979, officiating in leagues local to his home town, eventually being made an assistant referee in the Football League in 1992. His promotion to the Premier League assistant referees' list came in 1995, perhaps unusually, as this happened before he had been appointed to referee in the Football League. In 1998, he was an assistant referee for Paul Durkin in the FA Cup Final〔 at Wembley on 16 May 1998, when Arsenal defeated Newcastle 2–0.〔(Assistant referee, FA Cup Final 1998 ): soccerbase.com website. Retrieved on 19 March 2008.〕 His promotion to the FIFA list of assistant referees also came in 1995, and he was included as one of the English team of officials at Euro 96.〔 The step up to Football League referee came in 1999,〔 with his first game being the Third Division tie on 7 August 1999 between Halifax and Darlington at The Shay, when the home side lost 1–0 to a Marco Gabbiadini goal.〔(First ever Football League match ), Halifax v.

Wycombe ), Second Division, 2001: soccerbase.com website. Retrieved on 20 March 2008.〕 and then sending off their defender Paul McCarthy as "last man". Newby said: "He definitely had his hand on my shoulder. I will do anything to help us win so if there is contact I am going to go down." The Bolton Evening News remarked that "he () did not help proceedings flow".〔(Newby appears to admit 'simulation' ), Bury v. Wycombe, 2001: from an article at the Bolton Evening News website. Retrieved on 20 March 2008.〕 He was congratulated, however, on a particular performance during a First Division match, in which no cards were shown, between Ipswich Town and Burnley on 22 October 2002, which ended as a 2–2 draw.〔(Ipswich v. Burnley ), First Division, 2002: soccerbase.com website. Retrieved on 20 March 2008.〕 Burnley's assistant manager Sam Ellis said: "We had a word with him after the game and praised him for his part in a match of such quality. The ref let the game flow, decided against using yellow cards and he certainly helped it as a spectacle".〔("The ref deserves some praise for once!" ), Ipswich v. Burnley, 2002: from an article at the Lancashire Evening Telegraph website. Retrieved on 20 March 2008.〕 In 2004, he received further praise, this time from Darlington's then manager, David Hodgson, after reviewing a decision made during their FA Cup first round tie at home to Yeovil Town on 13 November 2004.〔(Darlington v. Yeovil ), FA Cup, 2004: soccerbase.com website. Retrieved on 19 March 2008.〕 "Joslin ... admitted he was wrong to send () Close off in the closing stages", and rescinded the red card. Hodgson said: "It's not often that a referee will admit he is in the wrong but he has and I think he deserves a lot of credit for that. He has taken it upon himself to ring me and ask me what I saw. I told him and he agreed that he'd made a mistake."〔("Close case is reopened and big defender is in the clear" ), red card rescinded, Darlington v. Yeovil: from an article at the Northern Echo website.

Leicester ), Championship, 2007: soccerbase.com website. Retrieved on 19 March 2008.〕 After Leicester's Patrick Kisnorbo had tackled the home side's Pablo Couñago in his own penalty area, Joslin appeared to indicate a corner kick. However, after discussion with his assistant referee, he awarded a penalty to Ipswich and sent Kisnorbo from the field. According to the Daily Mail, "()ideo replays suggest he () got a foot on the ball in his challenge on Counago and was unlucky to be sent off, but he did not leave the field immediately, which may put him in hot water with the FA".〔("Foxes fuming at ref as Kisnorbo sees red" ), Ipswich v. Leicester, 2007: from an article at the Daily Mail website. Retrieved on 19 March 2008.〕 Subsequently though, after review, the referee rescinded the red card, and Leicester manager Ian Holloway commented: "The ref was overruled by his linesman and that's like me picking a team and then being overruled by my assistant".〔("Kisnorbo has red card rescinded" ), Ipswich v. Leicester, 2007: BBC.co.uk website. Retrieved on 19 March 2008.〕 On 13 March 2008, it was announced that Phil Joslin would be taking charge of the Football League Trophy Final at Wembley on 30 March 2008.
