Very typical: "Somebody told me that, but I don't remember who".
Variation: "[Name] told that during a meeting some years ago". ([Name] stands for an instructor, assignor o colleague who is not present at the moment.)
Second variation: "It is in the rule book or in the case book, at the moment I can't find where; maybe some interpretation I read in the net."
I have said many things which are not in the rule book, according to some young officials; of course I have never said those things.
I remember very well that many years ago, I was very young, a
coach 
told me about an error I made and he was right, while I insisted that the rule book said differently. Since then I try not to be caught unprepared.
