I like to record these things. The FA usually publish an article on their website confirming the live broadcast fee each round. They did so for the third round when the fee was £150,000:-

MAN UTD, LIVERPOOL AND SPURS AMONG CLUBS ON TV IN EMIRATES FA CUP THIRD ROUND

The fee was the same in the fourth round:-

ARSENAL V MAN UTD HEADLINES LIVE TIES IN EMIRATES FA CUP FOURTH ROUND

And they have already published their article confirming we will receive £350,000 for the match at Millwall:-

ALL FOUR EMIRATES FA CUP QUARTER FINALS WILL BE BROADCAST LIVE BY BBC OR BT SPORT


Last season at the fifth round stage the broadcast fee was £247,500:-

BBC AND BT SPORT SELECT EMIRATES FA CUP FIFTH ROUND TIES

So, can anyone confirm the fee we received for last Saturday's broadcast?

Does that mean if we were to win we get the TV money plus the prize money? Over a million pounds in the bank if we win excluding the three way split on gate money.
Not a bad days work worth getting out of bed for.

Whatever the figure is I don't think 'we' (the fans) earned a penny of it.


Sssshhhhhhhhhh.

Yes.

We have already earned well over a million pounds from the cup run so far, just from live broadcast fees and prize money:

3rd Rd Broadcast Fee: £50k (the Bournemouth game was televised abroad)
3rd Rd Prize Money: £135k
4th Rd Replay Broadcast Fee: £72k
4th Rd Prize Money: £180k
5th Rd Broadcast Fee: £?k (almost certainly in excess of £250k)
5th Rd Prize Money: £360k
6th Rd Broadcast Fee: £350k
