A Coatbridge native, Mark's footballing journey started with Moodiesburn Boys Club before he joined Falkirk's development ranks in the late 1990s. He signed his first professional contract with the Bairns in July 1998, and had become a regular in the first team by the age of just 18, attracting attention as one of Scotland's most promising young midfielders. In 2001, he received a cap for Scotland's under-21 side.
In 2002-03, Mark played a key role in helping Falkirk to the SFL First Division championship under manager Ian McCall. The Brockville club were denied promotion to the top tier on stadium grounds, and that summer, Mark followed his manager to United on a free transfer, agreeing a three-year deal.
Despite a difficult first couple of campaigns for the club, he did enough to earn a contract extension in the summer of 2005 that would keep him at United until 2008. In December 2005, he turned out in the Scotland ‘Futures’ side as a substitute against Poland.
Throughout his five years at Tannadice, Mark played under four different managers and was rarely missing from the line up, collecting runners-up medals in both the Scottish Cup final in 2005 and the League Cup final in 2008.
He arguably hit his best form in his final season as a defensive midfielder under Craig Levein, playing a big part in the club's resurgence - but his involvement was unfortunately underlined by a slack passback in extra-time of the League Cup final, costing United the lead with just minutes remaining.
Mark played just eight more games for United and after his contract expired in May 2008, he joined Aberdeen.
