Reverting to Never Walk Alone ~~

"I have actually long wondered what was the position of the Rodgers & Hammerstein estate. Can they claim a royalty every time the crowd is heard singing You'll Never Walk Alone on Match Of The Day or Sky tv? And, if so, do they? And from whom? & do Liverpool pay them anything for having the words inscribed on their gate? And, if not, why not?"

~ I asked some days, and many posts, ago; but nobody has come up with an answer; so I repeat the question here.

This seems to me a matter of some interest, and I wonder if any Catter out there [we all know that Catters among them comprehensively cover every possible field of human knowledge!] can supply an answer.
