Certain to fail (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hopeless

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">certain to fail</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for hopeless that I've seen before include "Incompetent" , "Despairing or futile" , "Feeling despair; very bad" , "Vain" , "Unachievable" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
