We have an old email group, that no longer exists, that still appears in the suggested contacts in people's Gmail when they begin typing "middle" or "middle school". 

There is a contact card for this account but the delete button is greyed out. I tried using:

gam user <myEmail> delete contacts emailmatchpattern <contactToDelete> 

but it still appears as a suggested contact. Any suggestions?

My version:
GAMADV-XTD3 6.00.01

Use : 
gam all users_ns clear contacts emailmatchpattern some...@gmail.com   (replace someemail with actual address).

Thank you James. We got the issue resolved yesterday. We ended up with gam ou_and_children "staff/middle school" delete contact query #middle

And a thank you to Ross!
