Chelsea legend John Terry in spat with Fulham with fans loving Premier League's club's 'brilliant' response

CHELSEA legend John Terry slammed rivals Fulham on social media for their lack of silverware before the club hit back in hilarious fashion.

The Blues icon, 42, won five Premier League titles, five FA Cups, three League Cups, one Champions League and one Europa League during his 19-year stint at Stamford Bridge.

He retired in 2018 following a one-season spell at Aston Villa, with his final match coming in a 1-0 Championship play-off final defeat to Fulham as Tom Cairney's goal sent the West Londoners up.

And one Cottagers supporter reignited the feud with Terry on social media on Wednesday.

A Brentford fan account shared a picture of Neal Maupay scoring a stoppage-time equaliser against Fulham towards the end of the 2017/18 season.

The comment was in reference to Bees fans debating their favourite kit.

But a member of the Craven Cottage faithful was quick to point out that the Maupay goal - which ultimately denied Fulham an automatic promotion spot - meant they went into the play-offs where they ended up beating Terry's Villa.

In response to the image of Maupay celebrating, the fan said: "Because of this we got to witness our club at Wembley. The white wall.

"@ThomasCairney making John Terry cry on his last ever game. Thank you."

Terry, who looks set to take his first role as a head coach at Saudi Arabian side Al-Shabab FC, responded to the tweet less than two hours later as he took aim at Fulham's trophy cabinet.

He replied: "I have won more trophies since I retired than Fulham have in 50 years. 🤣 🏆

"One team in London and it will NEVER be Fulham! 💙"

Fulham have never won a major trophy in their 144-year history.

But their official was not shy in getting involved in the spat on Thursday morning.

They shared a brilliant GIF of Jay Cartwright from The Inbetweeners appearing to tease Terry for snapping back.

And fans were loving the simple response to Terry's bolshy comments.

One said: "Best thing admin have done 🤣🤣."

Another added: "Brilliant. My Club 😂😂😂."

And a third responded: "He's gonna cry again."
