It's either an illegal version, or you've continued a game you started on the FM2008 Demo.
Either way, the game is reacting like it's a pirated version so you won't be able to fix the Euro2008 "bug", and you may experience problems later on in your game.
Installing patches may be able to solve it, but I doubt it, as the anti-piracy measures were added for a reason.
An "anti piracy" measure, that can also be triggered with legitimate copies of the game, is not only useless as an anti piracy measure, it is also an uncalled for bad time for legal costumers.
It compares the "computer code makeup" of your game to what it should be, and a pirated game will be different in some way, because it'd have been cracked, so some part of the code would have been changed.
So, it's a decent way of checking.
Unfortunately, as the demo was different to the full game, the demo also triggers the "bugs".
However, the demo was intended to be a "try and see if you like it." If everyone starts a new game using the full non-demo version, then no legitimate users will be affected by the anti piracy measures.

Well, all that you just said, makes it a bad anti piracy measure. It should affect only pirates and never a single legitimate user. That's just punishing the people who actually buy the game, just for the sake of making a couple of pirates spend 2 minutes on the net searching for a better "fix".
