Er. I'm pretty sure BA are in receipt of rather a lot of brand new A320/321 NEOs and A350s.
As for "don't expect much".
I have personally flown 6 sectors on BA, LH and SH all in CLUB, within the last two months. Only one bad experience and that was the food on a return from MCO. The Club cabin on the A350/B787 was superb. The staff were friendly and attentive, I even saw a senior cabin attendent dealing with a very rude and disruptive passenger with patience and professionalism second to none. Personally I would have decked him if he had spoken to me like that!
Maybe I'm just lucky.
