Run and kick supporter (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bootleg

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

'kick supporter' is the wordplay.
'kick' becomes 'boot' (booting is a kind of kicking).
'supporter' becomes 'leg'.
'boot'+'leg'='BOOTLEG'

'and' is the link.

(Other definitions for bootleg that I've seen before include "Illegally made recordings" , "Type of jeans" , "Run" , "Pirated (copy)" , "Illegal music recording" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
