Dale's man (3)
I believe the answer is:
roy
'dale's man' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for roy that I've seen before include "-- Lichtenstein, US artist" , "Rob .... was a famous Scottish bandit" , "Rob --, Scots outlaw" , "Man" , "'... Rogers, old film star cowboy (3)'" .)
