Establishment
The club was established in 1976 by Ali Shadiyan under the name "Soltan Tabarsi" and participated in the city of Mashhad's youth football leagues. Sometime in 1977, the name of the club changed to Mokhaberat Mashhad when new owner Javad Moradnejad revealed Ministry of Post and Telecommunications as sponsor of the club. In 1983 the club was renamed to Payam.[3]
Glory years
In 1988, Payam became Khorasan Province Champions and thus made first appearance in Iran's top league Qods League. Payam then once again appeared in the top league for 1994/95.
After relegation in 1995, once again appeared in the top league and for first time ever two seasons back-to-back 1996/97 and 1997/98. Payam's team of 1996/97 is considered the golden team in Payam's history. In these years the team was coached by the great Majid Jalali and in addition to local star players such as Reza Sahebi, Majid Hosseinipour, Mehdi Vaezi, Ali Hanteh, several Iran national football team players and other star players featured for Payam including Nima Nakisa, Sattar Hamedani, Dariush Yazdani, Behzad Dadashzadeh, Shahram Baratpouri, Ali Chini and Ahmad Momenzadeh.[4] However it got relegated at the end of 1997/98 season.
Iran Pro League
The club was promoted to the Persian Gulf Cup for the 2008–09 season and had a difficult season where they changed chairman three times and three coaches and had financial problems during the season. They finally lost the battle to their city rivals Aboomoslem and were relegated to the Azadegan League again.
Relocation to Nishapur
Due to the club's financial crisis, the club was docked three points at the end of the 2010–11 Azadegan League season and thus was relegated to 2nd Division. Parliamentarians and industries in Nishapur had promised financial support and a strong fan base if the team moved. Mahmoud Safaei chairman of the club decided to move the club to Nishapur. This move which lasted only six months from May 2011 to November 2011 was a disaster as the team did not receive the promised support, thus Khorasan Razavi FA took over ownership of the club and returned the club back to Mashhad.
Bankruptcy
In 2012, the club was unable to pay wages and had debts. The club's owner, Mahmoud Safaei, was able to raise some more money, but even this soon proved to be insufficient resources to sustain the club. Payam Mashhad were relegated to 3rd Division at the end of the 2011–12 season. This form of bankruptcy meant that the club was refused a place in 3rd Division for the 2012–13 season, and as a result effectively ceased to exist.[5]
Refounded
At the beginning of the summer of 2013-14 season, Majid Khorrami bought the franchise of Esteghlal Sari football club and gave life to this old and popular name of Mashhad and entered the second division league under the name Payam Vahdat Khorasan Football Club with the financial support of Atrak Air.[6] In the second group of the competition, among 14 teams, it did not get a better than 8th rank. Next season, with the support of Mahan Air, in the 2014-2015 Iran Football League Second Division, the first stage (second group) of the games, it won the sixth place in a situation where it was the half-season champion and failed to advance to the final stage to advance to the Azadegan League.[7][8] In start season 2015-16 with the disagreement between the club owner Majid Khorami and Ali Sheikhul-Islami, the management of the club was removed and Payam Vahdat to Kashmar made the team into the third league and its quota was sold to Persepolis Mashhad.[9]
Payam Toos
At the beginning of 2021, a campaign was created on Instagram and Telegram to revive the Payam club with the efforts of Qutb The Greens of Khorasan fans and Younes Masoudi, the former captain of this team, which led to the establishment of the Payam club this time with the original name of Payam Toos Khorasan. The two companies of Tybad pipe and profile and Epoxy sleep goods are the financial sponsors and The Greens of Khorasan entered the competition by buying the points of Omid Ganaveh from Bushehr province under the guidance of Mohammad Babaei, one of the famous coaches of Mashhad and a former player of Payam.After 9 weeks, Mohammad Babaei resigned and was replaced by Hassan Sorouri, and he was dismissed after 9 matches due to poor results, and until the end of the 2021–22 season, Abbas Sharif, one of Payam's base coaches, temporarily became the helmsman of Khorasani Greens until he who was the head coach of this team in the last 7 weeks, finished the season by finishing ninth in the table among the fourteen teams of the first group of the second division league of Iranian clubs.[10] [11] [12] [13]
At the end of the 2021-2022 season, Payam Toos Khorasan's quota was sold to Kian Sam Babol with the decision of its ownership.[14]
