What does it mean?

notafish - say "A was educated at Oxford" in a theatrical upper class English accent - then say "Govan High masel" in a theatrical guttural Glasgow accent. Come to think of it, it's not that funny, but the comments were!!

I don't get the "Govan High masel" bit. How does that sound with a Scottish accent, what's it supposed to mean? I know it'll totally ruin the joke now that you're trying to expalin it, but I'm curious now.
