The relay stops with ignition off, sticking button carries on with ignition off

You would also have generated an EFI error over 3500 revs...
Sorry, but I've looked at the wiring diagram, a shorting relay will continue with ignition on or off, as it feeds directly from the battery. Sticking starter button is fed by switched 12V, so would stop when ignition is turned off.

That is exactly correct

Starter solenoid terminals have welded themselves together. Hopefully the replacement arrives in the morning.

That will teach me to be cocky, cleaning up starter motor connections today, turning over really slow and re setting dash to factory settings......
Sorted all that then fucked clutch up

New solenoid and all is well with the world.
