Isaac Buckley-Ricketts was handed an immediate debut for his new club, as Oxford hosted Bury in League One. The winger completed 80 minutes with the Us leading 1-0 but the Shakers struck twice late on to snatch all three points.
On his move, Buckley-Ricketts stated: “I’ve always believed that no matter where you’re playing, people will notice good performances.
“For me, I don’t really judge it from the level you’re playing at – as long as you’re putting your all in and playing well, you will be seen.
“I just see it as coming in straight away and getting familiar with the team. You play your best when you’re happiest.”
