The 2025–26 season is the 125th season in the history of Barrow and their sixth consecutive season in League Two. In addition to the domestic league, the club would also participate in the FA Cup, the EFL Cup, and the EFL Trophy.

Managerial changes

On 10 December, Andy Whing was sacked as the club's head coach, after overseeing forty-six games in charge and a 32.61% win ratio. Neil McDonald was appointed as interim head coach, until a permanent appointment was made.[1] Twenty-three days later, Paul Gallagher was appointed as the new Head Coach on an 18-month deal.[2] However, Paul only lasted five matches in charged before being replaced by Dino Maamria.[4][3]
