On 22 March 2008, Flannigan scored his first goal for the club in a 4–1 home victory versus Inverness Caledonian Thistle. He was influential in Killie's equaliser by hitting the post with a free kick before the rebound was scored by team-mate Frazer Wright and he then scored the fourth goal of the match when a low cross was perfectly met by him after a surging run into the penalty box.[2]

On 20 November 2012, Flannigan then went on trial at Falkirk and played in an under 20's match versus Hibernian. On 22 February 2013, following his successful trial, Flannigan signed for the Bairns.[7] On 7 May 2013, after only three appearances, he departed the club, along with another four players.[8]
