As far as top premier league teams are concerned winning FA Cup only means prestige and honor because for top Premier League teams the prize money and financial rewards of playing or Winning FA Cup is just a change compared to what they make in premier league or champions league. For example Arsenal won the FA Cup two years ago and they made around £4.2 million from their FA Cup win but compared that to their Premier League (£93million) or Champions League (£25million) earnings and you will see FA Cup financial rewards are just a change for the clubs.
Having said that FA Cup and Capital One Cup represent huge financial possibilities for clubs in lower leagues. Last year when Manchester United visited Cambridge United for the 3rd Round tie they game was shown live on TV and Cambridge made £144,000 with Television Fees for live broadcast. They held United to a 0-0 draw and earned a very lucrative replay where they also received £72,000 for Television fee plus the massive 45% gate receipt revenue. So FA Cup represent a good value for money as far as lower league teams are concerned.
