Fan left deliveries at Old Trafford (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lover

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

'left deliveries at old trafford' is the wordplay.
'left' becomes 'l' (common abbreviation).
'deliveries at old trafford' becomes 'over' (cricket term - Old Trafford is a cricket ground).
'l'+'over'='LOVER'

(Other definitions for lover that I've seen before include "One of a couple" , "finished litre first" , "Paramour" , "toy boy" , "Juliet, for example" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
