I won't bang on about it, as I'll sound like a scratched record, but football barely scratched the surface of what Swindon - and other clubs (including top managers and execs) - were doing in terms of dodginess back in the day.
Macari walked from the criminal court case, of course. Got done by the FA for something else: the bet against his own club. But the sport was rife with far deeper corruption issues at the time, and the FA in its "sweep it under the carpet" wisdom just decided to, well, sweep it under the carpet.
Macari was symptomatic of what was going on. He was by no means leading the charge.

I'm guessing his betting thing was common place. Along with brown paper bags to let transfers happen
They were in a cup game and obviously would have made money from the next round. The bet was against Swindon so if they lost the club still got a windfall
He is a good guy trying to do good things.
Enjoyed the show Marvellous with Toby Jones which shows how Macari gave Harry Kane his start in football by making him kit man at Stoke,
