I don’t fink so. The liberty. No mate. Let me tell you this little miss sunshine....

You’re (nb: more commonly spelt your) now one of us. Declared. Colours nailed to the mast. No deserting. No whining about lack of glory. Asking why me? (‘Cause your ‘ere son, and there’s nobody else in this freezing rain tonight at Spotland). If we’re served shit, we eat it. And come back for more next week. No questions. And if your ever caught saying something nice about them ‘eathen bar starts at the wrong end of the A23, we’ll be over in a Gordon, causing so much mayhem they’ll have to rename the capital Tehrup.

Now we’re clear on that score...Welcome! :) Quite like a Tahdig myself...Noosh-e jan! :thumbsup:

I never understood this mentality.

Don't you think it is wonderful that people get to know each other over something as sports? I mean, you now have millions of Iranians around the globe that have become familiar with Brighton, which they previously probably had never heard of. Likewise, Brighton fans are now getting familiar with Iranian players such as Alireza, and perhaps get to know something more about Iran as well, which as a country is far more than the usual headlines one reads in the newspapers. Lets celebrate this rather than getting stuck on petty politics.

Thanks for this fantastic welcome !

I have one question:
I read somewhere that Brighton had 12 TV games last season? Is there anyway we can somehow stream all of the games? I will try to come to visit Falmer Stadium as soon as possible.



Not appropriate to post links to streams on NSC for legal reasons so you will have to fish around for streams. Google searches are ok and with a bit of pop-up navigation you can get the odd decent one. Reddit Soccer Streams is my favourite search for EFL games and have had no problems with picking up games all last season.

Welcome to our new Iranian friends (and, like others, apologise for the few bell-ends on this site)

Question for you: I'd be interested to try Persian food but it looks a bit meat orientated - do you have any vegetarian dishes?

I sometimes wonder what it must be like to be so negative and miserable - must be bloody draining

A few years back just after Christmas your team stayed in the same hotel as me in Marbella, I think for some warm weather trading during your break, quite bizarre to be sat in a bar talking to one of the club officials about Danny Holla and Elvis Manu, I think it was about the time we were first interested in AJ

There's three big categories of Persian food. #2 and #3 are generally made with some sort of protein e.g. chicken or meat but can easily be made vegetarian by not including the meat. #2 and #3 lists are generally the things I would make nightly at home. Google image the Farsi words for some delicious images! Persian cuisine uses delicate spices so it is usually pleasing to the western palate, as opposed to Indian or other South Asian cuisine which uses pretty intense spices which to me sometimes overpowers the ingredients.

1) kababs with rice - this is meat and rice, put simply, generally this is what you get in restaurants

2) things mixed into rice - this can include barberries/saffron (zereshk polo), dill/lima beans (baghali polo), green beans/tomato (loobia polo), sour cherries/slivered pistachios and almonds (albaloo polo), etc.

3) stews put over rice - this can include ghormeh sabzi (a favorite, herb stew with kidney beans), gheimeh (yellow split pea stew), fesenjan (pomegranate paste and walnut stew), kadoo/bademjoon (zucchini/eggplant stew), karafs (celery stew), etc.


**a word of warning that restaurants typically do #2 and #3 categories quite poorly, this is where you need to make some Iranian friends and get invited to their houses for home-cooked dinners!

Also, these are just a few main dishes that came to mind. Not only is Persian cuisine pretty extensive, but every region has their own dishes and specialties. Alireza for example was born in Gilan in the north along the Caspian Sea and the Gilakis (the ethnicity of many people in Gilan) have their own dialect and food, delicious things whose names I don't know and have no idea how to make!
