The former long-term Melbourne Victory assistant and Socceroos staffer is renowned for being one of the nicest blokes in football, but how does that saying about nice guys go again?

After many tipped Brisbane to be among the league leaders at the beginning of the season (probably those same blokes who tipped the Mariners to make finals), Davies must have sat in disbelief at the monumental mess he inherited from John Aloisi.

His first couple of matches in charge showed glimpses of hardy Welsh-fight to them, but after Melbourne Victory thumped Brissie 5-0 at home the wheels began to fall off...then they careened into other cars and burst into flame.

Perhaps the worst ranking isn't reserved for Davies at all, but the Brisbane Roar hierarchy (surely not the Bakries!) who seemed a little sadistic in allowing a clearly struggling Davies to flounder in the coaching role for 18 matches before eventually appointing Robbie Fowler.

Here's hoping this isn't the last we see of Davies. After all, what happens in Bris Vegas, stays in Bris Vegas...right?
