letters 4-6 mean "twice", so are used as a musical instruction for "repeat" or "again"

HI everyone

Guess what? I'm struggling. Started after lunch about 3.00pm and FOI was 8ac. Much to my amazement, I got the theme, but like many others have struggled with parsing some of the clues. I was very pleased when I got 17,19 and parsed it. Having said that I still have many to go like 9,4. Of course, I've got 9ac, but cannot get 4d. A hint for 11ac might give me another crosser.
Is the definition for 14ac a battle site. I've found a battle that had a stand from a football ground that fits.
I'm completely fazed (or is it phased?) by 13d, though I have the first letter - otherwise an empty SW corner. A hint for 23ac might help me. I'll be back to check in a few minutes once I've cracked 5d. I don't understand the parsing hint @38 from Quisling for 1d.

Hi Roof.
9,4 is an anagram and you probably have the right word for 9.
Sounds like you’re on the right track for 14ac.
Best wishes, Dave

13d is another anagram, anagrind is 1st word of clue.
