Pulverised in good session at Birkdale? (6)
I believe the answer is:
ground
'pulverised' is the definition.
(past tense of 'grind')
'good session at birkdale?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'good' could be 'g' (abbreviation) and 'g' is located in the answer.
'session' could be 'round' (I've seen this before) and 'round' is present in the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'in' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for ground that I've seen before include "Worked hard" , "Terrain" , "Base; reason" , "foundation course?" , "crumbled" .)
