They are very hard to bleed ......

But, did you flush the system well and truly through? You could have sludge trapped.

drain it down again and the trick is to fill it very very very slowley so that it can burp.
take the top rad hose off. fill rad side first, then fill block side second. slowley.
then put on hose, top up header tank and expansion bottle.
