No, he said they’d get their Sept-Nov wages from the bank guarantee, which is his money that he’s paid the UCI as part of his contractual obligations. For reasons which are unclear, there has been a delay in that money being paid out by the UCI. We don’t know if that is due to the UCI or Aqua Blue/Delaney, but the money is there to pay them.
It’s quite common that when a team closes they request the UCI to pay the last three months wages from the guarantee.
So he's not actually paid them like he said he would, he's let the UCI pay them.
