The son of Fulham owner Shahid Khan told a supporter to 'Go to hell' and insisted he will 'die at this club' after being told to leave.
The Premier League strugglers suffered a 14th loss of the season of on Saturday, surrendering a second minute lead in defeat at Burnley to leave them five points adrift of safety.
And with tensions rising within the fanbase, vice-chairman Tony Khan reacted angrily on Twitter after trying to ease fears of relegation back to the Championship on Twitter.
Having promised not to surrender and claimed there will be 'multiple signings' this month, one fan replied: 'Leave my club please'.
Khan, also the co-owner of NFL franchise Jacksonville Jaguars, wrote back: 'Never. I’ll die at this club. Go to hell.'
The 36-year-old had initially tweeted: 'Thank you to all @FulhamFC supporters, especially those at Turf Moor today.
'To squad, staff + supporters, some people are waving the white flag and saying we should surrender, people said the same when we were 6 & 4 points behind the past 2 seasons; we closed the gap both times.
'Our squad has great moments, but they’ve shown their abilities more often than they’ve gotten the points we need. But we can close this gap.
'As with last January we’ll make multiple signings to improve the squad, but it’s on our players now to fight, finish & win. Come on Fulham!'
Claudio Ranieri's side had taken an early lead through Andre Schurrle but contrived to lose at Turf Moor without conceding a single shot on target.
Own goals from Joe Bryan and Denis Odoi led Burnley to a third successive league win to ease their own relegation fears.

Don’t you love this my club/ our club thing!! At what point does a club become yours?? When you make a decision as a child to support a specific club?
it does become your club when you support it because fans care more about their club than the owner, staff and players because they know their club inside out. to say something like that shows you're not passionate about football and the game has no place for fans like you

Great another desperate club in the market for overpriced, over hyped imports.
What? Like Gary Cahill?

Always happens when clubs get promoted. That said, children of rich men who are given executive responsibility really need to learn why nepotism is a bad thing and why no-one cares what they think.
I'm sorry your father was a failure. Try judging a man on his own merits, not what you think is important. How much do you know about the son and what he has or has not earned? Jealousy is weak sir.

As a Fulham supporter the guy on Twitter certainly doesn't represent my views. The chairman has invested heavily and our position is down to the two managers and players. If we were to get relegated, it certainly won't be the fault of the owners.
As a Newcastle fan, I can only dream of the sort of backing your owner has given the previous manager. An owner must trust a manager but then the manager and players need to take responsibility.

Chairman of Fulham cannot be accused of not putting his money where his mouth is. Fulham fans should be grateful they haven't Mike Ashley as Chairman. At least he's giving his manager a fighting chance
Exactly. Fulham's problems aren't down to funding from the owners, they are down to signings not working out. Seri hasn't worked out, Schurrle can be ok at times but not great, Mitrovic has gone off the boil

He spend the money, it is not like he is choosing players. It is down to sport director, board, manager... they can't blame him. He invested.
