Outbreak after clubs go bust (5)
I believe the answer is:
crash
'go bust' is the definition.
'crash' can be an answer for 'bust' (thesaurus). I am not certain of the 'go' bit.
'outbreak after clubs' is the wordplay.
'outbreak' becomes 'rash' (rash can mean a sudden outbreak).
'after' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'clubs' becomes 'c' (abbreviation used in card games such as bridge).
'rash' after 'c' is 'CRASH'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for crash that I've seen before include "Car accident" , "Dramatic fall" , "Bang" , "Economic collapse" , "Disastrous market fall" .)
