not sure mate.

its as if the cable is too tight,, as the clutch releases as soon as you put your foot on the pedal

Could be over adjusted,pretty sure you release it by pulling the pedal upwards,stick your foot under the pedal and pull it back towards you

As said above,stick a new cable on,allways get the best from your new clutch then
