Rum agent stupidly causing row (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

argument

'row' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'rum agent stupidly' is the wordplay.
'stupidly' is an anagram indicator (a stupid ordering of the letters).
'rum'+'agent'='rumagent'
'rumagent' is an anagram of 'ARGUMENT'.

'causing' is the link.

(Other definitions for argument that I've seen before include "Contentious debate" , "Debate - disagreement" , "Line of reasoning" , "Tiff" , "Discussion - line of proof" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
