Precarious footing (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

toehold

(Other definitions for toehold that I've seen before include "Position of initial advantage from which further substantial progress might be made" , "Minor position from which further progress may be made" , "Advantageous position" , "Small established position" , "Precarious footing?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
