It's always "maths" not "math" but we'd always say "the maths says" and I've never questioned it until right now

It's still singular. Maths is just a contraction of mathematics, but without an apostrophe.

Thanks! Now I have more questions, but they're better. This is good progress.

Just like "the science says" (but unlike "the English say" ;) ).
