What would look nice is a big Wigan crest on the grey cladding outside. Is there any signage on the building?

We went before and after the game.
I really like it. The club shop was busy and can be improved over time. The fan zones got a good vibe about it.
I feel Ilike we have a home for the first time since we left central park. Plenty of stuff can be built on but it's a lot easier for me to spend money when I know it's going to the rugby side of things. Daughter got the new yellow kit yesterday knowing the squad was going to be there for pics and along with a few drinks at fanzone (Mrs was on the gin) meant we spent 100 quid over the weekend.
We are normally pushed for time come Thursday/Friday games but we have already said we will just go there and grab drinks and food. Maybe a little more choice on food themes come the warmer part of the season would be nice You could have a few tables for kids parties with one of the players turning up for pics and so on.
Clubs got this one right. With a little more work can see a good atmosphere in there for big games . Lockers Roaming spirits cost me a bit!
Be great if they got a big screen in for the Toronto game my girls came back real happy today and my lad who was working is looking forward to our next home game.... well done!

They do have it outside in the summer with more eateries, tables & seating. Even deck chairs! 😂
Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Looks like the fans have found somewhere where we feel like a club,something thats been missing to long and something that stadium doesn't provide.

It's a real pity the full benefits over the summer won't be had, because of the usual closure of the DW stadium in the summer months.
Many of our home matches are now, during the Winter months unfortunately, and not as welcoming during this time for fans at the Robin Park facility.

Tried the fan zone on Sunday and was very impressed.A pleasant family atmosphere in a great facility with a few players on hand for your “selfies” and only 50 yds from the stadium.Something we’ve needed badly and puts money into the club.Recommended.

I'd say that should be the priority now. It does just look like a grey clad building, rather than anything connected to Wigan Warriors.
Makes you wonder if someone forgot to apply for permission to put up signage.
