Maybe coach with time organised football? (9)

I believe the answer is:

transport

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'maybe coach' is the definition.
'transport' can be an answer for 'coach' (I have seen 'The coach' mean 'transport' so perhaps 'coach' could also mean 'transport'). I'm unsure of the 'maybe' bit.

'with time organised football?' is the wordplay.
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'time' becomes 't'.
'organised' becomes 'ran' (I've seen this before).
'football?' becomes 'sport' (football is a kind of sport**).
't' put next to 'ran' is 'tran'.
'tran'+'sport'='TRANSPORT'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for transport that I've seen before include "which may be public?" , "Take from one place to another" , "Move something or someone over a distance" , "trap, for example" , "Parts torn in fit of strong emotion" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
