Ford Galaxy stalling after repairs

I have a Ford Galaxy, 2007, 57 reg. It has recently had the clutch replaced and Dual Mass Fly wheel under warranty. However, when starting from cold and putting in 1st gear it always seems to stall unless you put your foot way down on the accelerator. Is this a common fault? Or something more serious?

That should not happen, so yes. Suggest the timing taken from the flywheel is slightly out.
