Diagnose my brakes

Problem: Pedal seems to have excessive play and maybe little spongy. Seems to go down quite abit more compared to RUK's 197 Cup, R27, R26 and when car was new.

Fluid changed last year in June
New braided lines from yozzasport
Bled in Sep but rear O/S caliper didn't have anything coming out
Fluid changed again this year and garage said its perfectly fine
New pads and discs just fitted

Not quite sure where the problem lies atm.

Sound like a blockage in the pipes maybe. the idea of bleeding is to get all the air out. If nothing is coming out then I would assume that's a problem.
Was the car bled with the engine running or not?
A m8 of mine did my last car at the garage he worked at & said the engine should be off to bleed the brakes, but after he had done it, it was still spongy. We tried bleeding again with the engine running & it was 10times better.
Not sure on the procedure for bleeding these days though.
