You can probably repair the cracked neckboard.  Or if you don't think you can there are places that can do it for you.  That's assuming the neck of the tube isn't broken, if it is, you can kiss it goodbye and it will need to be replaced.

I'd need a photo to give a good opinion.

Cracked neckboards are usually easy to repair if you can solder.  Cracked tube...first you have to find one, then swap it out...
