Complain at broken table (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bleat

'complain' is the definition.
(I know that bleat is a more specific form of complain)

'broken table' is the wordplay.
'broken' is an anagram indicator.
'table' is an anagram of 'BLEAT'.

'at' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for bleat that I've seen before include "Cry of sheep or goat" , "Cry of a lamb at table" , "Sound made by goat" , "Lamb's cry" , "Cry like a 16" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
