On 27 August 2013, Bingham joined Scottish Championship side Falkirk on loan until the end of the year.[3] He made 13 appearances, 11 in the league, but did not score during his time with the Bairns.

He scored on his Mansfield debut on 6 September 2014 in the 14th minute, a close range tap-in after the initial shot by Fergus Bell was saved, in the 1–2 away victory against Exeter City.[5] He also scored twice against Carlisle United in a 3–2 home win for Mansfield.
