Biography
Mark joined United at the age of 17, signing from Highland League side Cove Rangers in August 1988 for £3,000. Over the next four years he developed through the youth and reserve teams, making his first appearance for the first team in a pre-season friendly against an Australian Olympic XI in August 1990.
At one stage it looked like the defender would be leaving Tannadice before making a competitive appearance, but then played his way back into contention, making his debut against Aberdeen in December 1992, playing regularly through until the end of the season. He played occasionally over the next two seasons, as United won the Scottish Cup in May 1994 but were relegated from the Premier Division a year later. Mark gradually became an established first team player, helping United regain topflight status in 1996 and a third placed Premier Division finish in 1997, collecting a League Cup runners-up medal in November 1997 after losing the final to Celtic. At the end of the 1997-98 season Mark left the club under freedom of contract.
He spent two years with his hometown club Aberdeen, collecting another League Cup runners-up medal in March 2000, joining Ross County nine months later. In 2003 he moved to Peterhead, helping them win promotion to the Second Division in 2005, and returned to the Highland League in 2007, signing for Keith. In 2013. at the age of 42, Mark returned to Cove Rangers to help with a player shortage.
