Had a play with it this morning but location doesn't mesh well with how my skin is so it's not for me personally but can see it being very popular for those who get around to hooking it up. But everything seems to be working fine within the addon after testing it last night. Great work!

Quick update - I'm working on the advanced notifications (showing player image) and, fingers crossed, it looks like I can get this to work.
Just want to canvas opinion on something: The easiest way to do this is to create a custom notification and show this. However, doing it this way means that the notification will capture all key presses while the notification is being displayed. This isn't an issue if you're just watching video but could be annoying if you're navigating menus.
The alternative is to create a custom window which you'd need to place in your skin file (if I automate that process, the addon will never get into the official repository but I don't think that matters too much). However, doing it this way means the notification doesn't trap keypresses so you're free to use Kodi as normal.
I'm curious if anyone has any thoughts on this.
To be honest, it's pretty quick to build in both options. The hardest bit is building the notification - displaying it is just the final step.

Assuming its pretty quick, then capturing the key-presses might be ok

Yes. But if you're watching numerous leagues you could, conceivably have many notifications queued at the same time.
There's also the question as to whether you do advanced notifications for kick-off, half-time etc. which would increase the chance of having lots of notifications at the same time.

Are you running on Android? I think that's a python 2.6 error.
If that's the case, it should work on Krypton.

El P you never cease to amaze bud. I was just about to post the above error (Usually use Windows but now get relegated to the shed/bar for footie so stuck it on Android this morning but noticed the aforementioned error.) Top work as always mate, appreciated! Got a paypal acc so I can chuck a few beer tokens your way? Or a charity/Kodi you'd like a donation made out to? It's the least I can do.
