Moaning Higgins goes to pot (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sighing

'moaning' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'higgins goes to pot' is the wordplay.
'goes to pot' is an anagram indicator.
'higgins' anagrammed gives 'SIGHING'.

(Other definitions for sighing that I've seen before include "Sounding weary/bored" , "Expressing weariness" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
