Gloucester fly-half Ryan Lamb insists the thundering 50-9 win over Saracens will give his side "massive momentum" for the Premiership final. "We didn't expect to score as many as that against Saracens but it was a massive team effort. The pack was awesome," said man-of-the-match Lamb.
"The support was awesome for us and we just hope we can make it a great spectacle next week.
"The momentum this gives us going into the final is massive."
Boss Dean Ryan has said his team will ignore the memories of their 2003 Premiership final defeat by Wasps when they play at Twickenham next Saturday.
Four years ago they lost 39-3 to the London side but Ryan said: "Parallels will obviously be drawn with what happened in 2003, but this team won't carry that burden.
"If we carried history around with us, then we'd be burdened, but we don't."
Ryan was delighted with his side's display against Saracens and added: "To score 50 points is flattering. This is cup rugby and it wouldn't have happened in the league because Saracens had to chase the game.

"But we played some great stuff. We see ourselves as a side that needs movement - we can't get caught up in a static contest - and we need to keep the game moving."
Saracens rugby director Alan Gaffney, whose side earned their best Premiership finish for seven years, had no excuses about their performance at Kingsholm and said: "We turned the ball over too often but full credit to Gloucester, their counter-attacking game is very good.
"We were building pressure on them at 14-6 adrift, but then it went to 21-6 and we started to chase the game. We then all saw the result of that.
"When the pressure was applied, we didn't handle it at all. We have to be a lot tougher mentally.
"We let ourselves down today - players and coaches - and we have got to learn from it.
"We have conceded a heap of tries in the last few weeks. We just haven't retained the ball and built pressure."
