Robinson was appointed to the EFL Referees List for the start of the 2012/13 season, taking charge of his first game between Southend United and Accrington Stanley. He was the fourth official at Wembley for the League Two Play-Off Final between AFC Wimbledon and Plymouth Argyle in May 2016. As part of the development programme, he represented the PGMOL at the Dallas Cup 2012 and at the Nike Cup in China in 2012.
Robinson took charge of two Cardiff City matches last season. The MK Dons Capital One Cup game at Stadium MK where City lost 2 - 1, in that game he booked five players including Cardiff players Fabio and Sean Morrison, and the Nottingham Forest home 1 - 1 draw in December. He issued two yellow cards in that match, one of them to a City player - Fabio again.
In total last season he issued 149 yellow and 9 red cards in 43 games.
