Grab a metre of steel flat or angle, drill holes to match the clutch pressure plate, bolt it on and that will stop it turming.

Don't stuff with long bars, angle iron with holes, just buy one of those tools that volksfolks sells, they are worth every penny, you won't beleive how good they are till you have used one.
