He added: "I want to work with the players and help them.
"It's very good to be be here.
"I was impressed with training, the professionalism, the set up and the targets.
Manager Tisdale was delighted to have recruited Oakley, saying: "It boosts the team. We need someone who can make good decisions and Matt was an ideal choice."
