Unhappy Odd clutch pedal issue (not a sticking one)

I have a little issue with the clutch pedal. There are lot of threads about sticking pedals but I can't find any with the same problem I have.
If I change gear at high revs the pedal has little to no resistance as it goes down. I can do the same with the car strood still and just rev the engine.
I have changed the spring under the intercooler for a new one and it is still the same. I have had the clutch bled and that didn't sort it. It isn't loosing fluid.
I'm at a loss now I have no idea.

Is the clutch engaging? If you put it into gear does it stall or is the clutch working? If you get someone to press the pedal can you see the selector fork moving? If it is, I would guess at the thrust bearing not being meshed properly

Yes the clutch works fine. It's just after revs it the pedal has no feel down to the biting point.
