Chelsea managed to extend their perfect home record with a solitary goal in a tightly contested match, when John Terry's first goal of the season won the game despite strong protests from the United contingent.
Ferguson was disappointed with the decision to award Chelsea the free kick which led to the winning goal and the fact that the goal was allowed - despite apparent obstruction by Didier Drogba.
The United manager, who has already admitted a charge of improper conduct following his comments regarding Alan Wiley, explained his frustration at his lack of faith in officials.
Ferguson said: 'The referee couldn't see the incident, he's standing behind a Chelsea player and he wouldn't move. It's a bad decision.
'But there is nothing we can do about it. You lose faith in referring sometimes. It was a bad one.'
He continued: 'The fact that Chelsea now go five points clear is a concern. With the Liverpool game at least it didn't affect our league position directly.'
