Interesting.

And would this (overheard a few weeks ago) also count as an 'extended' zero conditional:

"Well, if Chelsea don't win tomorrow, all I can say is, someone's tapped up the ref."

(I should explain that 'tapping up' is when an agent illicitly suggests to a player that he'd get a better deal elsewhere. I think the speaker here simply meant 'bribed'; but 'tapping up' was much in the news.)
