I expect, from what you have said, the springs on the pressure plate have snapped, and its subsequently destroyed the thrust bearing (the squeaking was the bearing being slowly destroyed) and now you are crunching gears because the clutch isn't working.

If you start the car in gear can you stop the car by pushing the clutch in?(P.S trying this could lead to brown pants )
