Fervent partisan (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

zealot

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

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for zealot that I've seen before include "Fanatic or extreme enthusiast" , "Fanatic, usually religious" , "Fervent, even militant, proponent of something" , "Fanatic, fiery follower" , "One ardent for cause" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
