I am unable to even move the arm on my box after replacing the clutch. Did you put the release bearing back in?

yes mate, that was same with the arm..solid.. until I put cable on. the arm is still solid, its just bit of play in pedal im bothered about

could I have got clutch plate in wrong way round?

Mine has some play in it before it depresses the clutch, I think it's normal. Can you get all gears without issue? You might want to re-set the clutch pedal.

You may need to adjust the ratchet behind the clutch pedal.
