Default Help needed re Focus rear discs please!!

I know its the wrong forum bit im desperate. I have fitted a complete set of EBC discs and pads. Got to the last one, offside rear and the piston wont retract into the caliper enough to allow fitment of new pads. It winds back so far then wont go any further. I removed h/b cable and also tried opening the bleed nipple and pushing back the piston with a g-cramp but it wont go. Any suggestions?
