Mark Gillespie is an English goalkeeper, born on 27 March 1992 (age 34). A towering 6ft 4in (1.92m), he is currently listed with Newcastle United, wearing squad number 29.
His career is shaped far more by Carlisle United than by anything around it. Gillespie made his first league appearance for the club in 2009-10 and went on to play 161 league matches across six seasons. For a goalkeeper, that sort of run tells its own story: trust earned, kept, and tested often enough.
Gillespie is now on Newcastle’s books, with a current market value of around £170,000, according to Transfermarkt. The outline of his career remains plain: a long, substantial Carlisle spell, followed by a place in Newcastle’s goalkeeping group.
