Clutch related but could be various parts of the clutch I would say.

pedal would be on the deck and no movement if it was the release bearing, have these got adjustable gear linkages?

worn clutch release bearing, mines was doing the same thing, whirring noise when pedal was up and silence when pressed, dependsing on what flywheel its using it could be a quick job to replace the bearing but its prob worth doing a full clutch at the same time, as for the gears id try and set them up again its could be that the car is going into the gear but not correctly
