A week ago McDonnell was listed on the retained list and yet we have announced he is staying and has signed a new contract, (as though before today this has been in some doubt, what is the reason for this?

Not necessarily mixed messaging.
I notice on the announcement there was no mention of how long he has signed for.
So i suspect, its just a new contract for next season (to which he was already contracted), so basically a payrise in his "new" contract.

The thing that would make sense is if we have extended the contract.

I'm just happy he's going to be between the sticks next season!

Yeah agree. We have either announced the same thing twice, that he is under contract and staying or when we put out our retained list he should have been listed as in ongoing discussions with the club.
Either way we trying to get a bit of good publicity out of it, so no harm in that I spose

All it does is rightly improve his wages, possible buy out clause protecting the club and a buffer until the end of the transfer window in March (or in McDonnells case the week after the season in preparation for the play offs😆)
