Silly Uncle Pat I blame (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

inculpate

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

'silly uncle pat i' is the wordplay.
'silly' indicates an anagram.
'uncle'+'pat'+'i'='unclepati'
'unclepati' with letters rearranged gives 'INCULPATE'.

(Other definitions for inculpate that I've seen before include "Incriminate" , "Blame" , "Accuse" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
