Cheers

Check your slave cylinder, as the bore wears they can become sticky and cause the clutch pedal to not come back up.

If you search sticky clutch pedal or clutch bleeding you should find a few threads with relevant info. Happened to me after doing a clutch fluid flush, and I found a couple of good techniques to bleed it properly from this forum

if its sticking half way check ur crank end float, crank thrust bearings could be buggerd, but more than lightly you just need to bleed up the clutch or find leak.
