I'm guessing the return spring at the top of the clutch pedal is a bit mucky? WD40 will do wonders.

A failing clutch cable can cause stickiness though, so if the WD40 doesn't fix it, try and look at the clutch cable.

mine was the same. I replaced the clutch cable, solved it!

Oh, and my pedal box has split, and been welded (badly) at some point, and has started to split again. i just bolted a bracket/clamp throught the bulkhead, and it doesnt flex anymore.
