Portsmouth boss Steve Cotterill is looking to quickly add to the 15 players at his disposal, with the new season just eight days away. "The owners have been very good since they have come in and backed me very well," Cotterill told The News.
"You can't be asking for something every week. They have already spent a lot of money since they came in. They know the squad is light and we are trying to address that but, obviously, we are chasing time again, pretty much like we were last year.
"Every summer this club has had a new ownership. It probably won't have a new one next season and will be a lot better for it. We've got some good players but want to add to them and are still trying to do that.
