Default Noooooooo....

Mate got a new car today (106 quicksilver ) so went out a run with him, me in my car, him in his.

Anyway, coming off a mini roundabout leading into a country road, he guns is, so i do the same.

In first, missed 2nd gear, properly crunched it... tried again, missed it again, 3rd time, i made sure i was properly going through the motions, an it wouldnt go into gear?

Pulled over, and pulled away again, got it in this time, but was a fucking struggle, basically banged it into gear and nursed it home, trying a couple of times to go up and down gears, it would go in easily sometimes, other times (mostly changing up into 2nd) it needed some force?

Please tell me i havent fucked it

I presume you mean a hydraulic clutch.. if so, then ive got no idea.

Some possible suggestions so far?
Anyone who knows more be able to rule out any of the following?

Fork and bearing not assembled properly
Faulty pressure plate
Pressure plate-to-flywheel bolts loose
Faulty clutch plate
