"The trick is not to get up to your neck in it"

interesting comments here by Prof Tom Cannon of Liverpool University, a leading UK authority on football finance,
He has told Sport Wales he believes the types of investors being linked with Cardiff offer little hope for the future.
He told the programme, "None of them offer any great hope in my opinion. The truth is that when you are up to your neck in it then you are usually desperate for anybody to come along.
"The trick is not to get up to your neck in it."
Not particularily an endorsement of our boards financial running of the club from someone who knows his onions.

I can't remember a time when we weren't up to our neck in it 
Mind you I'm sure that's the same Professor who said a couple of weeks ago that 'Cardiff are a relatively well run club'
That's experts for you, fickle just like us football fans.
