John Terry has found himself in the middle of a social media feud with Fulham fans after reacting to a post mocking his tears in his final ever appearance in senior football.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Terry spent the vast majority of his time with Chelsea – historic and local rivals to Fulham – winning 17 trophies including a Champions League\u00a0and five Premier Leagues.\u00a0<\/p>\n
His final ever fame however came at Wembley with Aston Villa – where he spent his final season in 2017-18 – in a campaign that saw the Midlands club reach the Championship final, only to be beaten by Fulham 1-0.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He has also been linked with a first managerial position with Saudi Pro League side Al-Shaddab in recent days, as he looks to make the transition to the dugout having held a number of assistant roles.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But he has provoked the anger of Cottagers fans on social media after responding to a post on X which directly made fun of the former England captain.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘Because of this we got to witness our club at Wembley. The white wall,’ read the post, accompanied by a picture of Neal Maupay scoring for Brentford to consign Fulham to the play-offs.\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘Thomas Cairney making John Terry cry on his last ever game. Thank you.’<\/p>\n
Terry was however quick to respond, making light of the subject by writing: ‘I have won more trophies since I retired than Fulham have in 50 years.<\/p>\n
‘One team in London and it will NEVER be Fulham!’<\/p>\n
But rather than quash the squabble there and then, Terry’s words inspired a hilarious comeback from Fulham’s own admin.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The account retorted with a GIF of The Inbetweeners’ Jay Cartwright, suggesting the former centre back had been rattled, have been provoked to respond.\u00a0<\/p>\n
And Cottagers supporters were quick to applaud their admin’s efforts, rushing to the comments to show their approval.\u00a0<\/p>\n
One wrote: ‘Best thing admin have done,’<\/p>\n
Another echoed the sentiment: ‘Brilliant from the admin!!!’\u00a0<\/p>\n
A third said: ‘Brilliant. My club.’\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Delighted Fulham fans were quick to their admin’s response to Terry’s comments on social media\u00a0<\/p>\n
A fourth was quick to point out that despite Terry’s response, Fulham actually finished above their historic rivals in the top-flight last term, adding: ‘Someone remind Terry that they finished below Fulham last season.’<\/p>\n
And a fifth concluded: ‘Love you admin.’\u00a0<\/p>\n
In 26 meetings in his playing days, Terry only lost to Fulham three times, beating them on 17 occasions.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Throughout his career, the English defender would only score more goals (five) against Arsenal than he did against Fulham and Charlton (four).\u00a0<\/p>\n
