It might be worth it if so, but not otherwise, unless the Club configuration will be CW rather than CE, which I assume is likely and might be fun. As a Gold I will have lounge access anyway, limiting the benefit of the paid upgrade. Incidentally, everything in front of row 26 seems greyed out, which I assume is due to the First/CW/WTP of the aircraft.
If it's a 777 you'll be in CW or First. BA doesn't have any short-haul configured 777s. While you wouldn't get the avios/TPs, I'd still do it for the upgraded seating and service.
