Shifting into 5th is nervous



Last night I was out driving like the crazed madman I am, having fun.
When I noticed after coming to a stop that I couldn't engage 1st or 2nd
gear. After working the car to the side of the road the only gears I
could engage was rev, 3, 4. The problem was that the shifter wasn't
moving out of the gear.  In 5th gear I couldn't get the shifter to go
into the neutral position  After turning off the engine and with my foot
on the clutch I worked the shifter free.  I was able to shift into rev,
1,2,3,4 gears with no problem with getting the shifter into the nuetral
position, but on my way home driving in 5th, coming off the off-ramp I
couldn't get out of 5th so I had to ride the clutch until I got off the
ramp and play with the shifter until I was able to get it into the
neutral position.  From there I didn't touch 5th again.  Was is the
problem with my 85 scirocco, in desperate need of help?
