Despite the trial being unsuccessful Yeovil boss Gary Johnson recommended the player to his brother, the then Weymouth manager Steve Johnson and Dutton, who had decided he wanted to return to the game, signed towards the end of the season.[5][2] He then had his contract extended for another year during which he scored the winning goal in the local derby with Dorchester Town.[6][7] Dutton was offered a new contract by the club at the end of the 2005–06 season but turned it down and was released.[5][8]
