Not too sure but does a faulty fuel relay cut the coil feed guys?

The fuel pump relay doesn't effect the coil.
It's possibly the crankshaft position sensor. If that fails, you won't get a spark. You could check the condition of the lead from the sensor (bolted on-top of the bell-housing). When the outer insulation of the lead breaks down, the timing signal is disrupted. The sensor is about £30 and takes 5 minutes to fit.
