RELATIVES of teenager Kameron Bourne say he would have 'loved' hearing Stoke City fans carry out a minute's applause in his memory.
As the 14th minute ticked by in yesterday's Premier League clash with Manchester United, supporters rose to their feet and began clapping out their tribute to the 14-year-old.

The capacity crowd at the Britannia Stadium was paying its own tribute to Stoke fan Kameron, who was found dead at his home in Dawlish Drive, Bentilee, eight days ago.
Kameron's aunt, Susan Clarke, aged 53, from Dividy Road, said: "Everyone seemed to stand up to clap, it was brilliant.

"I went down to the Bellringer, on the Eaton Park estate, to watch the match with my sister Vickie Clarke, Kameron's mum.
Kameron's dad, Craig Bourne, aged 44, his brother, David Butler and grandfather James Clarke were all at the Britannia Stadium to watch the game.
They were joined by Kameron's other brothers Justin Butler, aged 23, and 17-year-old Ryan Bourne, who were given free tickets by Stoke City following an appeal in The Sentinel.
Kameron, a student at St Peter's Academy, had dreamed of becoming a pilot in the RAF and was an air cadet as well as an avid Stoke City fan and keen rugby player.
An appeal has been launched to pay for his funeral, with his family hoping to raise enough money to hire a horse and carriage for the procession.
The family is now waiting for the results of a post-mortem examination, which they hope will solve the mystery of the cause of Kameron's death.
"I can't begin to express how grateful the family is, or to say how much it means to Vickie. It has provided a bit of comfort."
