Don't know if it will work but it's worth a shot. But I swear by a top tip given to me by a home carpet cleaner chap and that is-

Dreft (washing powder for woolens) mix a small amount in a spray bottle with cold water and spray on, massage (not rub frantically!) in, blot with kitchen paper. then leave. If yu can't find dreft I suppose a normal washing powder that doesn't contain bleaching agents would do.

Obviously your stain is quite severe so may take more time/effort.
