Clutch-ing at straws

Can anyone please advise on the following:
After a few days without use I stepped in to my car to find the clutch pedal completely slack. Having noticed a sqeak from it over the last few weeks, I reckoned the master cylinder was the best bet, and replaced it with a new one and bled the fluid. No difference. I put the old one back in and bled the fluid. No difference. I left it in frustration for a few hours and then realised I would need to get it out of gear to allow it to be moved. Jacked it up, rocked a front wheel, and out of gear it popped, but still refused to be pushed downhill! Starting the engine, a final jab of the clutch pedal generated a little bit of resistance at the bottom of the travel, and I can now drive it, although for how long I'm not prepared to take bets on.
Any diagnosis?
TIA
Steve
