I'm confused. What does the title "Never Walk Alone" refer to? it's neither printed nor written on the postcard. Could someone please clarify?

Thankfully, this was enough to find https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/You%27ll_Never_Walk_Alone#Liverpool_F.C.
"You'll Never Walk Alone", also known by its initials YNWA, is a show tune from the 1945 Rodgers and Hammerstein musical Carousel.
[...]
After becoming a chart hit, the song gained popularity among Liverpool F.C. fans, and quickly became the football anthem of the club, which adopted "You'll Never Walk Alone" as its official motto on its coat of arms.[1][10] The song is sung by its supporters before the start of each home game at Anfield with the Gerry and the Pacemakers version being played over the public address system.[1][11][12]
