Ray is still working on getting the crossing perfect. Having something that needs no more attention after you are done is a good thing.

Ray missed the first meeting of the club, the very first meeting. Since he could not attend he asked his friend Paul to attend and find out about what was going on. Those two have been in the club ever since. Ray is putting in a crossing at Roscoe.
