Brian Arrowsmith (2 July 1940 – 12 April 2020) was an English footballer and manager. Born in Barrow-in-Furness, he spent his entire professional career at his hometown club Barrow.[1] He made 512 appearances for Barrow, including 378 in the Football League, the most at that level for the club.[1][2]

Arrowsmith started his career as a right back, but played across the defence when required.[1] He captained Barrow during the 1966–67 season in which they won promotion from the Fourth Division,[3][4] and stayed with the club for a total of eleven seasons.[1] After leaving Barrow in 1971 Arrowsmith joined Northern Premier League club Netherfield,[5][6] but returned to Barrow – who by then had been voted out of the Football League and placed in the Northern Premier League themselves – in 1974 as player-manager.[1] He resigned as manager in November 1975, but continued playing for the club until 1978.[5]

After retiring from football, Arrowsmith ran a DIY shop in Barrow, regularly attending Barrow matches as a fan. His son, Mark, made six appearances for Barrow in the 1980s.[5] In January 2017, the main stand at Barrow's Holker Street stadium was renamed the Brian Arrowsmith Stand in his honour.[7]

Arrowsmith died in hospital on Easter Sunday in 2020 having contracted COVID-19.[8]
