Fall behind (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lag

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">fall behind</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(synonyms)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for lag that I've seen before include "An old one is a convict" , "Wrap water-pipes; fall behine" , "Convict (slang)" , "Wrap to protect from frost" , "Drop behind" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times, The New York Times, the King Feature Syndicate, The Mirror, the LA Times, the USA Today, The Irish Times, the Penny Press, The Telegraph, the Universal, the L.A. Times Sunday, the L.A. Times Magazine, The Star Tribune, The Sun, the Newsday, The Wall Street Journal and The Guardian.
