Might be worth checking the gearbox mounts as I had something similar on my old MK2 Focus I had.

Its most likely your pedal box matey. Over time the carpet and deadening beneath them becomes squashed and they start knocking when you're using the pedals. Have come across a few focis with this issue. Not sure how you'd cure it though.

The most common gearbox mount to go, or come lose is at the bottom rear of the gearbox,,to get to it you have to jack up the car and take off the under shield..
