well my suspicions of pushing the center of the clutch out were right 
had an absolute ballache getting the gearbox off due to the separate pieces of clutch plate bonding it all together, ended up having to drill through the bell housing to get to the bolts holding the plate in so it could be dropped complete from the block.
the center of the clutch has been properly pushed through, once the gearbox was free of the engine all the individual pieces of clutch and bearings all fell out onto the floor it was so badly destroyed.
