Neil Warnock:
"The owners don't really matter to me as long as they're supportive"
"I knew there were talks (about selling the club) when I came here because I spoke to Mehmet about it," Warnock said.
"But I'd be very surprised if anything happens in the next 12 months because Mehmet's given me assurances. We're all singing from the same hymn sheet.
"Mehmet and Vincent have been supportive of me from day one, so I haven't got a problem.
"But if they want to sell it I would imagine the best time would be in the next 18 months.
"They'll probably wait and see what happens next year."

Neil Warnock would be 'surprised' if Vincent Tan sold Cardiff in next 12 months
Thursday 2nd March 2017
Neil Warnock believes Vincent Tan will remain Cardiff's owner for the next 12 months at least.
Cardiff: Neil Warnock would be 'surprised' if Vincent Tan sold Cardiff in next 12 months
Malaysian businessman Tan raised the prospect of selling the Sky Bet Championship club on Wednesday when he released a statement saying he would consider a deal "if I am offered the right price by the right person".
Tan bought Cardiff in 2010 and has subsequently ploughed more than B£150million into the club during his controversial reign.
The club's debts to Tan in the most recently available accounts stood at more than B£100m, although the owner has begun a process of writing off that amount following a pledge to make the Bluebirds debt-free by 2021.
Warnock - who last week signed a one-year contract extension to remain Cardiff manager for the 2017-18 campaign - said chairman Mehmet Dalman has assured him that Tan will still be at the club next season.

BBC Sport are reporting that Neil Warnock is not concerned by the potential sale of Cardiff City and doesn’t think it will affect his future as manager of the club.
Thursday 2nd March 2017
Cardiff City owner recently released a statement on the club’s official website saying that he was not actively looking to sell the club but he would sell up if the right offer came in.
This prompted people to question Warnock’s stance on this but the Cardiff manager is adamant that he will not be affected by any change.
Warnock said:
“The owners don’t really matter to me as long as they’re supportive.”
He added:
“If they [Mehmet Dalman and Vincent Tan] want to sell it I would imagine the best time would be in the next 18 months.
“They’ll probably wait and see what happens next year.”
Warnock took over in October and has lifted Cardiff from relegation candidates to a comfortable mid-table position.

Neil Warnock: Manager would be 'unaffected' by Cardiff City 'sale'

Neil Warnock: Cardiff City boss on life as a manager
Manager Neil Warnock believes any potential sale of Cardiff City would not affect his future.
Owner Vincent Tan has said he is in "no rush" to sell the Bluebirds, but would listen to offers.
Warnock hinted it might be worth waiting to see if Cardiff can win promotion to the Premier League before selling.
"The owners don't really matter to me as long as they're supportive," he said.
"Mehmet [Dalman, Cardiff's chairman] and Vincent have been supportive from day one so I haven't got a problem.
"But if they want to sell it I would imagine the best time would be in the next 18 months.
"They'll probably wait and see what happens next year."
Warnock, who signed a new contract on Saturday, has transformed Cardiff's fortunes since his appointment in October, lifting the Bluebirds from the Championship relegation zone to mid-table security.
The 68-year-old has ruled out the possibility of promotion this season - Cardiff are 12 points adrift of the play-off places - but hopes to challenge for a place in the Premier League next term.
'Tan's probably enjoying it now'
Warnock has been assured by Dalman and Tan he will be given the funds to do so in the summer, and the former Queens Park Rangers and Crystal Palace manager is confident his plans will not be affected should Tan decide to sell the club.
"Not at all. He's probably enjoying it a bit now. The money he's put into the club he should be able to enjoy it," Warnock added.
"Nothing surprises me in football. I knew there were talks about it [selling Cardiff] when I came to the club because I spoke to Mehmet about it.
"But I'd be very surprised if anything happens in the next 12 months because Mehmet's given me assurances. We're all singing from the same hymn sheet."
Tan says he has rejected offers for the club, which he bought in 2010, on "numerous occasions" in the past.
Controversial tenure
The Malaysian's tenure has been controversial, with a decision to change the team's shirt colour to red prompting a furious reaction from fans.
His reign has also brought success on the field, most notably promotion to the Premier League in 2013, although Cardiff were relegated the following season.
Despite the turbulence of subsequent campaigns, Warnock does not believe speculation about the club's ownership will unsettle supporters.
"I don't think fans give a damn. They've had enough off-field problems over the years," he said.
"You don't realise the factions you get off the field. If a club is unified, it's so much easier.
"There's a lot of bickering in the background of a lot of clubs.
"Everybody has stepped up a gear the last few months and we know we've got to do that next season.
"Everything has settled down, Vincent and Mehmet have been great, players, results and fans too.
"Everyone is in a great place at the moment."

If Cardiff got back into the Premiership (and with Warnock in charge then why not) then it would be the ideal time for Tan to sell.
