I've pulled together a small script to display live football scores and thought I'd share it with the wider community.
Name: BBC Football Scores
What it does: Grabs live football score data from the BBC website and displays pop-ups at regular intervals.
Can be configured to just show updates when scores change or when game state changes (e.g. half time, full time etc). NB these updates still only occur at user defined intervals i.e. they're not real time updates.
The BBC data seems to show info on English/Scottish leagues, Champions League, UEFA Cup, Internationals (including Euro 2012 qualifiers).
UPDATE: 10 December 2013
The script has been updated to read the data from the BBC site. Currently the following leagues appear to be supported:
What it doesn't do: Other sport. This is just for football. And by football, I mean football where people kick the ball around with their feet.
