Can be: Weak selector shaft springs or worn bush on the bottom of the gearstick. Gearstick not touching the body at all? No Body lift?

My old shorty used to do this in 1st and 3rd. I never fixed it though as it had a shagged 2nd gear so was just going to replace the gearbox. But never got around to that either as I killed the car.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY....
