May I ask about another clue in this puzzle please?
Declined to dismiss match official no longer in top condition (4)
With letters I have “ used” seems to be the answer and that fits the last part of the clue. But I can’t work out the first part. Am I up a gum tree?

That's pretty poor parsing on my part ^^^

Declined = REFUSED then dismiss REF(eree) (match official.

Definition = no longer in top condition.
