Thank you, uwist77.
I can see bias in that answer and omen makes sense. Where does the remaining t come from and what has falling into a river got to do with it?

I can explain most of "scapegoat":fell=scap (geographical), eg=say (for example) + at (in clue) --- the O as river escapes me, too, but it must be correct!
