Cotterill reluctant to set new targets

Portsmouth's manager Steve Cotterill said he cannot set any targets for the new season until he knows which players will still be at the club. The 45-year-old, who has signed a three-year deal with Portsmouth, was unveiled as the club's new boss on Friday following Avram Grant's departure. Cotterill said: "I don't know the answer to that yet. I don't want to be negative with it, but I don't want to be over-positive with it. "I think once I know what group of players we have for the season, which will be at the end of August, I'll have a better idea of what our aims and aspirations can be for the season." Portsmouth's creditors voted overwhelmingly in favour of a Company Voluntary Arrangement on Thursday, which should see the club exit administration.
