Bachelors visiting famous footballer ruin external wall-coating (6,4)
I believe the answer is:
pebble dash
'ruin external wall-coating' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'bachelors visiting famous footballer' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'bachelors' could be 'bb' (an abbreviation for bachelor written twice) and 'bb' is found in the answer.
'footballer' could be 'pele' (Brazilian footballer Pele) and 'pele' is found in the remaining letters.
The remaining letters 'dash' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for pebble dash that I've seen before include "Type of coating for exterior walls" , "Type of finish for external walls" , "External rendering with small stones" , "Coating for external walls" .)
