Rubbish from supporters drinking a French wine (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

leavings

'rubbish' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'supporters drinking a french wine' is the wordplay.
'supporters' becomes 'legs'.
'drinking' is an insertion indicator.
'french wine' becomes 'vin' (I've seen this before).
'a'+'vin'='avin'
'legs' going around 'avin' is 'LEAVINGS'.

'from' is the link.

(Other definitions for leavings that I've seen before include "Crumbs!" , "Worthless remnants" , "Refuse" , "exits" , "Svengali (anag.)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
