I apologise now if i'm just being an idiot but I am a complete novice to linux.
I am using ubuntu 8.10 having had enough of windows, the one thing I miss with
windows is being able to play my football manager games (kills boredom!) I did
some research and found a utility (wine) that could help with my suffering,
after many hours reaserching i got to know the basics of wine and was able to
install my game with no issues. the problem arrose when trying to play the
game, i tried right clicking on the .exe file which did nothing, i then loaded
it in the terminal and the response i got is in the attachment. being I have
only used linux for 3 days the response has blew my mind and have been unable
to find anything on how to fix problem. any ideas i'd be very grateful.

i understand that it could just be that wine is unable to play this game, and
if so i'd just have to deal with it :(

thanks in advance
