The 2012–13 season was the 112th season in the history of Barrow A.F.C., an English association football club based in the town of Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria. This was the club's fifth consecutive season in the Conference National, the fifth tier of English football, ending in relegation back to the Conference North having been promoted from there via the play-offs in 2007–08. Barrow are managed by Dave Bayliss, who has held the post since December 2007. In addition to the Conference National, the team will also compete in two national cup competitions, the FA Cup and the FA Trophy.

Numerous changes were made to the playing staff ahead of the 2012–13 campaign, with no fewer than twelve new players arriving during the transfer window and nine players from the previous season leaving on free transfers. The Barrow kits for the season are manufactured by German company Puma and the main shirt sponsor is the bookmaker Coral.^[1]
