Unfortunate result in province (6)
I believe the answer is:
ulster
'province' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'unfortunate result' is the wordplay.
'unfortunate' is an anagram indicator.
'result' with letters rearranged gives 'ULSTER'.
'in' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for ulster that I've seen before include "Province of Ireland; overcoat" , "Area of Ireland" , "Loose, long heavy overcoat - rustle (anag)" , "Overcoat; former kingdom in Ireland" , "A heavy coat" .)
