Ally (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

friend

'ally' is the definition.
(I know that ally can be written as friend)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for friend that I've seen before include "Member of a religious community" , "Close associate" , "Pal or buddy" , "Colleague" , "One in need is one indeed" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard, The Telegraph, the Sydney Morning Herald and The Guardian.
