If you doubt that you got all the air out then give it another bleed. This time use the following method.
Fill up reservior. Put pipe on bleed nipple and crack off the nipple but not so its loose. Just so it's easy to undo when you need to. Nip it shut
Get your OH to sit in the seat and explain that she needs to do the following. You say pump. She pumps the pedal several times nice and quickly all the way up and all the way down. You say hold it down she says yes when she is pushing on the pedal. When she has said so you open the nipple when the pedal hits the floor she needs to say down immediately. You close nipple off, if needs be open and shut it before she says the pedal has hit the floor. Do this until you get no more air out of the system. It's not a long pipe so should only take 3 or 4 trys before you get solid fluid out. Needs to be quick open and shut though even if it takes a bit longer than usual it's worth a try.
The problem with clutches is that if you don't get all the air out you tend not to get full disengagement of the clutch causing drag and possible premature clutch wear.
Does this make sense? It's really easy if you know how. Sorry if you don't understand but it's the only way to describe what I know in my head.
HTH.
