Crossword Genius

Supporters, say, in outskirts of Leeds (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

legs

'supporters' is the definition.

'say in outskirts of leeds' is the wordplay.
'say' becomes 'eg' (both can mean for example).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'outskirts of' means to remove the middle letters (only letters on the outskirts).
'leeds' with its middle taken out is 'ls'.
'eg' put into 'ls' is 'LEGS'.

(Other definitions for legs that I've seen before include "Members" , "Sections of a journey or course" , "Lower limbs" , "Stages of a journey" , "associated with 11 in game" .)
