As it's champions League night, let's look at the impact of CL prize money on FFP.
Ignoring ticket money, CL prize money for this season increases by 50% (ish)
So qualifying for the group stage = €12.0m (previously €8.6m);
Each group win = €1.5m (€1.0m);
Each group draw = €0.5m (€0.5m);
R16 qualification = €5.5m (€3.5m);
QF qualification = €6.0m (€3.9m);
SF qualification = €7.0m (€4.9m);
Runner Up = €10.5m (€6.5m);
Winner = €15.0m (€10.5m);
Max = €54.5m (€37.4m);
And any club can still only invest €35m over 3 seasons to comply with UEFA FFP!
The existing prize money already turns the list of regular CL qualifiers into a Cartel - The new prize money levels make it very difficult even for a club like Utd to get back in to the CL if you drop out!
I have no idea how you've arrived at the conclusions in you last paragraph, which I think are flawed.
If as you say, the MOST you can earn from the CL is €54m, (and more typically a lot less than that since only 1 team can win it), then this is a pretty small sum compared to the €160m you get for winning the league, or €87m for finishing BOTTOM of the league. And those are last years figures. This year the PL prizes rise to €200m and €132m for finishing last.
For a club like United, the CL prize money is borderline irrelevant. A much bigger issue for them would be loss of sponsorship revenue were they to have a sustained period out of the competition, which sadly is very unlikely.

The word coming from the rags today, is that missing the Champions League cost them £38 mil.
Oh, and the Glazers have decided to pay themselves £15 mil per year out of Utd.
Lol.

Any of our learned brethren able to have a stab at what our revenues would have been from 14/15?

Which in the scheme of things is pretty irrelevant. Without the £38m, they would still be in the world's top 5 clubs by revenue, so hardly "very difficult even for a club like Utd to get back in to the CL if you drop out!"

They don't see it as irrelevant judging by today's comments suggesting they require the last 8 of the Champions League & that they won't be having such large transfer windows in the future.
Plus they have to now pay the Glazers £15 mil per year dividend. Ha.

they should be out next month although usually they're published nearer to Christmas. So not long to find out from the horses mouth.
