Be unsuccessful (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fail

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

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for fail that I've seen before include "Don't succeed" , "Let down" , "Be unsuccessful, say in exam" , "Flunk" , "Be unable to achieve one's object" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian, The Mirror, the LA Times, the Sydney Morning Herald, the Newsday and the Evening Standard.
