Tyrone county secretary Dominic McCaughey has called on the GAA to review its procedure for financially supporting teams who play away from home in the All-Ireland Qualifiers.
The red Hands have played 22 Qualifier ties since the introduction of the 'back door' system in 2002, but just two of them were at Healy Park.
With counties in the lower divisions entitled to home advantage, top teams who make an early exit from their provincial championships are liable to be faced with a series of away trips.
But McCaughey (above) feels this is unfair, and in his report to next weekend's annual convention, he makes a strong case for change.
"There is a strong case to be made for a detailed review of the financial support made available by the Association to a county that endures a lengthy campaign of Qualifier games at 'away' venues in any particular season and also where there has been a similar unbalanced record of 'away' games over a large number of seasons," he says.
Tyrone took the scenic route to the All-Ireland semi-finals this year, entering the Qualifiers at the earliest possible stage after losing to reigning All-Ireland champions Donegal in an Ulster Championship preliminary round clash at Ballybofey.
They had to take to the road for all four of their Qualifier ties, facing Offaly at Tullamore, roscommon at Hyde Park, Kildare at newbridge and Meath at Croke Park.
McCaughey added: "It could, of course, be argued that by participating in the Qualifiers, it is the luck of the draw whether a county is at home or away and this is fine of course when there is a balance between the two outcomes. However, it is not fine and it is certainly very costly when 100 per cent of a county's Qualifier matches are at 'away' venues as in 2013, or when 86 per cent of the games over the 12-year period of the history of the Qualifiers are played 'away'."
The county secretary urged Croke Park to take a detailed look at the costs involved in fulfilling an away fixture, and act accordingly.
"of course, initially, there were clauses included in the regulations for the Qualifiers that teams from lower divisions of the NFL should be given 'home advantage' irrespective of whether drawn out first.
"From a financial perspective, there is a significant difference in the outlay required by a county team for its participation in a home fixture as compared with an away game when all travel and hotel accommodation costs are quantified.
"Since the introduction of the Qualifiers in 2002, as a route for entry to the All-Ireland Championship, Tyrone has participated in a total of 22 fixtures resulting in 18 victories, three defeats and one draw.
"During this 12-year period the county has enjoyed 'home advantage' on only three occasions, one of which was a replay against Louth."
