Directors sounding bored (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

board

'directors' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'sounding bored' is the wordplay.
'sounding' shows a homophone (sound like).
'bored' sounds like 'BOARD'.

(Other definitions for board that I've seen before include "Get on - governing body" , "provisioning of meals" , "See 9" , "Supervisory committee" , "Plank" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
