CONNOR Brown believes it will not be long before Barrow AFC’s supporters start to see what the new-look Bluebirds squad is capable of.

Full-back Brown was one of new manager Ian Evatt’s summer recruits, joining after being released by Vanarama National League North side York City, and has been impressed by the changes he has seen taking place at Holker Street.

Barrow aim to keep their perfect home record intact when they host Solihull Moors in the National League tomorrow (kick-off 3pm), and Brown is eager for him and his team-mates to start racking up wins consistently to reach the potential he sees in the squad.

“We should have more points on the board,” said Brown. “The squad is fairly new and you’ll see 10 to 15 games into the season what we’re capable of.

“People say we’ve started all right, but with what we’ve got in the changing rooms we should be doing better. We’ve just got to keep on plugging away with it and fight as a team.

“I’ve been to Barrow a few times over the years and it seems like it’s picking up, and there’s a lot more fans.

“Everyone is getting behind the club and hopefully we’re doing them proud with what we’re trying to do.”

It is Barrow’s away record which has let them down so far this season, with just one point coming from their four games on the road so far.

The most recent of those was a 3-1 defeat away to Salford City on Bank Holiday Monday - a game in which the Bluebirds had initially led in through Jason Taylor.

Barrow were not without opportunities to get back into the game even after going two goals down, although they were unable to make the most of them.

Nevertheless, Brown echoed manager Evatt’s sentiments in believing it was just one of those days where nothing went their way.

And the 26-year-old is in no doubt it was a game the team showed they can match any other side in the National League.

“I knew that we could match Salford before we went there,” said Brown. “As the gaffer says, I think we’re good enough to beat anyone on our day, I think we’ve dropped three points.

“I think we should’ve come away from Salford with something, but sometimes it just goes like that, doesn’t it?

“We just couldn’t get back into the game; we had Rooney’s free kick, and also Molyneux’s free kick from the edge of the box where the keeper has spilt it and it bounced back and went straight to their man.

“So I thought that we were unlucky.”
