Bottom club’s possible predicament that doesn’t have any upside? (2-3,9)
I believe the answer is:
no-win situation
'bottom club's possible predicament that doesn't have any upside?' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'bottom club's possible predicament' is the wordplay.
'bottom club's possible' becomes 'nowin' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'predicament' becomes 'situation' (I've seen this before).
'nowin'+'situation'='NO-WIN SITUATION'
