Additional Comments
- To create a prefix properly, I think it's better to use : env WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.wine.fm2010" wineboot - Tested with open source ATi (xf86-video-ati) on a RV770. - Sometimes X and fm.exe uses a lot of CPU. I don't know if it's normal.

2. Type
env WINEPREFIX=$HOME/.wine.fm2010/ /usr/bin/winecfg

To install the game.

2. Open a terminal window and type:
env WINEPREFIX=$HOME/.wine.fm2010/ /usr/bin/wine path_to_demo_file/fm2010_gold_demo-pc.exe
3. The install should proceed as normal. Choose the "Advanced/custom" option and not to install directx9.
Once installed you can run the game using:
env WINEPREFIX=$HOME/.wine.fm2010/ /usr/bin/wine "$HOME/.wine.fm2010/drive_c/Program Files/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2010 Demo/fm.exe"
If you wish you can create a launcher/shortcut and add this line to that.
Some things to try if the game doesn't run:
Disable Pixel Shading
1. Open a terminal window and run
env WINEPREFIX=$HOME/.wine.fm2010/ /usr/bin/winecfg
2. Click on the "Graphics" tab and untick "Allow pixel shaders if supported"

env WINEPREFIX=$HOME/.wine.fm2010/ regedit
2. Browse to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine
3. Open the Direct3D key and change the value of OffScreenRenderingMode from "fbo" to "pbuffer" (without the quotes)
4. If the Direct3D key doesn't exist:
Right click on the "Wine" key and select New -> Key. Name it Direct3D.
Inside the Direct3D key right click and select New -> String Value. Name it OffScreenRenderingMode and edit its contents to "pbuffer" (without the quotes)
