Transmission problem
2003 Suzuki Alto Front Wheel Drive Manual 66000 miles

I was coming home from the shop yesterday, my little alto was running fine, but as i changed down to 1st as i reached my street i realised that the clutch suddenly didn't feel right and sure enough, she didn't pick up the gear. thankfully i was practically home and managed to coast into a parking space! since then i have tried to put her into gear a few times, the clutch feels "off" and though i can put the car in 1st, she doesn't move when i do. Thinking about it now, i've had problems with getting her into reverse a few times over the last few months, but didn't think anything of it really. I take it i'm going to have to replace the clutch? Thankyou
