Could be the clutch slave cylinder playing up if stood a while then faulty.
Could try bleeding the system of any air(like brakes), there is a bleed nipple on the Slave cylinder to do this(easier with 2 people).
If clutch pumps up then is ok then poss new cylinder needed.
Hope this helps.

This is eerily familiar to a post recently where a guy had the exact same problem, you tried using the Search?
