Sav was shown a yellow card by the Essex official six minutes from the end of the 2-0 home win for not moving away at a free kick.
The Blues midfielder brought down Ivan Campo who rushed to his feet looking to take a quick free kick which hit the Blues midfielder.
"I brought him down and it was a free-kick but then he kicked the ball at me," Savage told Capital Gold Radio after the game.
"I don't mind being booked for a bad tackle but when I get booked for a piece of nonsense from another player it's a joke.
"He got me booked and I am thoroughly disappointed by it."
