City have played Newcastle at St James Park in an FA Cup Fourth Round tie before. On January 24th 1976, City drew 1-1 at Highfield Road in front of a gate of 32.004 but lost the replay four days later 5-0.
Coventry have not won at St James Park since a 2-1 win in 1987.
Supporters are advised that the away accommodation is up thirteen flights of stairs and anyone who suffers from vertigo or has problems walking should ask for a ticket in the lower tier.
The game will give City supporters their first chance to abuse Craig Bellamy since he left Coventry. The Welshman with a uncontrollable mouth slated the club and its supporters when he moved to Newcastle in 2001.
