In the glory days of the FA Cup, they played for the pride of the shirt they wore and the silverware, but nowadays they give a damn, its a place in europe, and more money.
It's not the FA's fault the cup has lost a lot of the appeal it once had. It's probably the fault of Sky giving a lot more football for people to watch, as well the Champions League which also gives a lot of football to watch and whose final is usually close enough to the FA cup final to dwarf it.

The ratings for the cup go down, less people want to watch it despite football being more popular.
