Suffer disgrace (4,4)
I believe the answer is:
lose face
'suffer disgrace' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for lose face that I've seen before include "Suffer a drop in prestige" , "Be embarrassed, humiliated" , "Suffer ignominy" , "drop in standing" , "be shamed" .)
