Demoted (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

relegated

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">demoted</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">('relegate' can be a synonym of 'demote')</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for relegated that I've seen before include "Put down" , "Kicked downstairs" , "not given precedence" , "Demoted" , "banished" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard and The Mirror.
