Guy Butters (born 30 October 1969 in Hillingdon) is a former football manager and professional footballer, currently assistant manager with Conference South side Eastleigh after leaving his role as manager at Winchester City. Butters took over at Winchester City in the Wessex League, having been appointed to replace Glenn Cockerill in September 2010.

Butters made his Tottenham debut in November 1988 in a League Cup tie versus Blackburn Rovers in which he scored an unfortunate own goal, he made his League debut as a goalscoring substitute that weekend in a 3-2 win against Wimbledon, he then started 34 of the next 35 games before making what would be his final appearance away to Charlton Athletic in October 1989. He spent the remainder of the season on loan at 4th Division Southend United and he was eventually sold to Portsmouth for a fee of £375,000.

He spent six seasons at Fratton Park and a further six years playing for Gillingham. He signed for Brighton on 29 August 2002 on a free transfer.

Butters played his 600th professional game during 2006 having been runner-up in the club's official player of the season awards for the two previous years.

Butters initially joined Winchester on loan as a player from Havant & Waterlooville in the Conference South following his release from Brighton & Hove Albion.

On 6 May 2008, it was confirmed that Butters, along with experienced trio Kerry Mayo, Gary Hart and Paul Reid were to be released from the club.
