Player ratings26 Oct 2026

Ahmad Noorafkan beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 23. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Match24 Oct 2026

Siah Jamegan end the wait against Naft Tehran

It had gone 6 games. The players did not celebrate like men who had won a match; they celebrated like men who had been let out of something.

Match24 Oct 2026

Whatever happens, Siah Jamegan do not lose

6 games unbeaten now. Some were earned and some were survived, but a habit is forming — and habits are the hardest thing in football to play against.

Squad26 Oct 2026

A row about effort at Siah Jamegan

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Morteza Azmoun was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Match24 Oct 2026

Ramin Hajsafi the difference as Siah Jamegan beat Naft Tehran

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Ramin Hajsafi. 2‑1 against Naft Tehran, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

The terraces26 Oct 2026

Siah Jamegan supporters have found a favourite in Ramin Hajsafi

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 22-year-old it feels ownership of. Ramin Hajsafi has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Player ratings26 Oct 2026

A masterclass from Ali Ghoddos

Marked 8.24 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Squad26 Oct 2026

8 new faces, and Siah Jamegan are still learning each other

A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.

The dugout26 Oct 2026

Karim Nekounam: “That is the standard”

“That is what I want every week. Not the result, the way they went about it.” The manager, after 2‑1, already talking about the next one.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Words at Siah Jamegan training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Abolfazl Zoleykhaei is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

The dugout12 Oct 2026

No hiding place for Hossein Azmoun

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Hossein Azmoun, and the manager let it.

The dugout12 Oct 2026

A promise honoured for Shukron Yo'ldoshev

It is not much of a headline and it is the reason players believe the next promise. Siah Jamegan told Shukron Yo'ldoshev something would happen and then it happened, which in this industry passes for remarkable.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Tempers go at Siah Jamegan

Amir Torabi was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Looking ahead12 Oct 2026

Javad Zergani goes back to face Esteghlal Khuzestan

Every squad has one of these fixtures for somebody every season. This one is Javad Zergani’s: the club that knew him first, the supporters who will decide in the first minute whether to applaud, and Siah Jamegan needing him to play as if none of it matters.

Market12 Oct 2026

The Ramin Hajsafi talk will not go away

Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. Siah Jamegan know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

Market12 Oct 2026

Talks stall between Siah Jamegan and Saeid Vafaei

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

The dugout12 Oct 2026

Saeid Dejagah knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Saeid Dejagah trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

Market12 Oct 2026

The shop window has Reza Shojaei in it

Siah Jamegan have let the market know Reza Shojaei can be had. No price in the advert, but everyone in the trade knows roughly what it says.

Market7 Sep 2026

Amir Cheshmi puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Siah Jamegan, and it is not being withdrawn.

Boardroom7 Sep 2026

Siah Jamegan close the window on a squad of their own making

9 in and 3 out, and no more changes for months. The manager has what he has, the supporters have their opinion of it, and the table will have the last word.

Transfer targets7 Sep 2026

Ahmad Savari is a medical away from Siah Jamegan

The deal with Esteghlal Khuzestan is done in every sense but the one that puts him on the pitch. Nothing goes wrong at this stage, except on the occasions when it does.

Squad7 Sep 2026

A row about effort at Siah Jamegan

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Morteza Azmoun was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Amir Cheshmi makes the wrong kind of headline

Dealt with internally, which is the phrase a club uses when it would rather nobody asked twice. He will be fined, he will apologise, and he will play on Saturday.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Alireza Ramezani is a square peg at Siah Jamegan

The system has changed and his position has not. A footballer can improve his form; he cannot improve the manager’s formation, and that is the whole of the problem.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Ashkan Mohammadi is no longer first choice

The manager has re-ordered his thinking and Ashkan Mohammadi has come out of it lower. He will be told it is temporary, and the players who have heard that before will avoid his eye.

The dugout7 Sep 2026

The manager has not finished forgetting Ali Yazdani's mistake

Publicly it is behind everybody. It is not behind the man who picks the team, and the only place that shows is a team sheet. He will get another chance; he will get it in a match that matters less.

Looking ahead7 Sep 2026

Alireza Ramezani faces his old club

Malavan next, and one man in the Siah Jamegan dressing room knows their training ground better than his own. The reception will tell him what they thought of him.
