The
Romanization of the Russian names is carried out on the basis of the BNG/PCGN
system
(checked for validity and accuracy June 2019)
The
choice of considering a club dissolved or existing under another name
(sometimes due to mergers) can often be difficult to evaluate. The choises made are therefore mine, based on the data I was
able to collect.
