They both pay a peppercorn rent and are only obliged to pay anything further if SSMC makes a profit, which it doesn't.
Doesn't appear from that they are "behind" with any rent payment for the stadium at all

Swansea (Liberty Stadium): Management arrangements
The stadium build was financed principally through land receipts from an out of town retail park development – together with a small
amount of Sports Lottery Funding. The stadium is owned by the City and County of Swansea.
The stadium is operated by a commercial operator (‘FMC’), which is overseen by a stadium management company. The Council,
the Football Club and the Rugby Club each have two Directors on the Board of the stadium management company. The Council
holds a ‘golden share’ on certain issues. This relates to a long list of detailed points, but covers issues such as appointing a Chief
Executive, the ability to hold events, and the treatment of the stadium sinking fund. Income is apportioned via a complex formula,
which holds some relationship with attendances. The Council is not under that arrangement obliged to financially support the
stadium on a revenue basis, nor do they generate significant annual income as a result.

Love the idea of SCFC and a 'Sinking Fund' Won't be long before the Gypos start dipping into that one

We're not.The understanding is what you've just said.Im sure if we make the premiership though and start raking it in then Swansea Council might come knocking
