Delay departure (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

linger

'delay departure' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for linger that I've seen before include "Dawdle, hang around" , "Remain for long" , "Remain behind" , "Hang back awhile" , "Be slow to leave" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
