Sverdlovsk Region Sports Minister Leonid Rapoport has threatened the players and management of Ekaterinburg-based FC Ural with firing squad if the club does not return to the Russian Premier League, from which it was relegated at the end of last season.
"For the season, the regional governor has set a direct task for Ural - to get into the RPL. Otherwise, the firing squad. I say this phrase not for the first time and not only to the players. So far we have not reached the extreme measure", - said Rapoport on air of the TV channel OTV.
