Murray blocks out noise as Barrow extend winning run

Boss Adam Murray says he is staying focused as Barrow's promising winning run continues.

Saturday's injury-time success over Wealdstone made it four consecutive victories for the Bluebirds as they show signs of starting to adjust to life back in the National League.

It is Barrow's best run since the autumn of 2023 and is helping to restore confidence around Holker Street.

But having been in the relegation zone before the upturn, Murray is not getting carried away.

"We were talking after losing at Solihull Moors and everyone was thinking, 'you're getting relegated, the manager's got to go, everything they do is rubbish'," he told BBC Radio Cumbria.

"Now you win a few games and you're going to win the Champions League!

"For me, it's about being humble. I don't listen to noise or social media, I stay focused on what I know wins."

Barrow have also won four successive home league games for the first time since February 2020 as they start to recover from the disappointment of finishing bottom of the EFL last term.

The Bluebirds are looking up as they lie two points and two places outside the play-offs, but Murray does not think his side has cracked it.

"I've got a lot of promotions as a player and manager, so I know what a dressing room looks like with winning habits," he said.

"We're nowhere near where we need to be. There's big parts coming together but we have to keep working hard."
