Was just about to chime in with the same thought myself, it's never been the cable at fault for me it's always been the clutch nearing the end of it's life. They can get so heavy (due to the springs work hardening I believe) that the release bearing eventually pulls out of the pressure plate leaving you having to "float" the gears like in a heavy truck, and start in gear at every light all the way home.
