Portsmouth manager Steve Cotterill is looking to the future - and the Championship opener at Coventry - after the club's survival.[LNB] The club's survival was secured in the High Court on Thursday.[LNB]Pompey avoided liquidation in their tax battle with HM Revenue & Customs and Cotterill is looking for a positive result on the pitch as well despite having a threadbare squad at his disposal.[LNB]He said: "We're short of numbers, but it only takes 11 to win a game. We've got to look after the best 11 and the fittest 11 we have available. If we put out a strong 11, we might do okay.[LNB]"It's been very difficult. But come 3pm on Saturday there will be a good buzz."
