Quigley came to prominence as a schoolboy with noted Dublin club Belvedere[1] from where he signed for Millwall in 2003. He spent the 2005 season at Shamrock Rovers (on loan) where he made a total of 12 appearances under Roddy Collins.
Mark signed for St. Patrick's Athletic in 2006 and made a huge breakthrough during the 2007 season. He ended the campaign as second top scorer in the league and was voted PFAI Young Player of the Year.[2] He was also called up to the Republic of Ireland Under 23 squad for the game against Northern Ireland and reportedly impressed the watching national coach Giovanni Trappatoni.[3]
After 148 appearances for St. Pats in all competitions, Quigley moved to Dalymount Park and Bohs' in time for the 2010 season.[4]
Quigley made a slow start to his Bohs career and it was May 8 before he netted his first league for the club when scoring the winner against Sligo Rovers.[5] Despite playing as a forward for most of his career, Pat Fenlon decided to use Mark as a winger and this played a part in a strike rate of only 4 goals in 34 league appearances for the Gypsies. When his contract expired at the end of the 2010 season, Quigley was released by Bohemians.
On 4 December 2010 he signed for Dundalk along with fellow Bohemians team mate Jason Byrne in a one year deal.[6]
Quiqley signed for Sligo Rovers on 14 December 2011, to fight for a place alongside Eoin Doyle and Danny North.[7]
